Dr. Ben Gallenson, Psy.D.

Welcome to Gallenson Psychological Services!

​

I’m a licensed clinical psychologist who works with adults navigating anxiety, overthinking, burnout, identity concerns, and the strain that comes with high expectations. Many of my clients function at a very high level but feel internally stretched, depleted, or disconnected. They come to therapy wanting relief, but also wanting to understand the patterns that keep them stuck—patterns that once helped them cope but now cost more than they give.

​

I see therapy as a space where we examine these patterns with honesty and curiosity. My style is warm, engaged, and collaborative. I work to understand how you’ve learned to move through the world, how stress shows up in your body and relationships, and what gets in the way of feeling steady. Together, we tune into the internal signals that often get muted by pressure and performance—the anxious thoughts beneath your efficiency, the emotional strain behind constant striving, and the deeper self that’s been overshadowed by coping

​

My style is warm, collaborative, and structured. We will work together to understand what is keeping you stuck, develop a clearer clinical picture of the road forward, and identify practical ways to create meaningful change. I draw from research-backed approaches, such as CBT, ACT, and ERP, to help you develop a deeper understanding of yourself and learn practical skills you can confidently apply to many problems in your life. If you are ready to make a change or you are curious about what therapy feels like with me, schedule a free consultation today.
