Ben Hill, LMSW, CAADC

NOT CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS
 
Hi everyone, my name is Benjamin Hill and I’m a Licensed Master Social Worker and Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor.
​
My goal in therapy is to provide a safe, warm, and inviting space where you can express yourself and grow into the individual you want to be. To assist in that process, I use a variety of evidence-based practices, such as Mindfulness and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), in a way that is understandable and approachable, while also challenging you to improve and grow.
​
My areas of passion include assisting people who have experienced trauma in moving from Post Traumatic Stress to developing Post-Traumatic Growth and resilience; addressing anxiety; and treating Substance Use. I have been trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Seeking Safety, and Mindfulness.
​
My educational background includes a Master of Social Work from Grand Valley State University and a B.S. in Psychology from Central Michigan University.
​
I find inspiration and hope in the works of Brené Brown PhD, LMSW; Nadine Burke Harris, M.D.; Bessel van der Kolk, M.D.; Janet Mock; and Gabor Maté, M.D.
