He draws on 16 years of experience to help people talk through stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, and dips in self-esteem. Bennett focuses on small, doable steps that fit each person's life.

Background and approach

Sessions aim to build tools for managing emotions and everyday pressures. He adapts conversations and plans to match what each person needs. That often means setting short-term goals, practicing new habits, and looking at how past experiences affect current choices.

The approach is practical and straightforward rather than overly clinical. Bennett emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in sessions. He encourages people to move at their own pace and to try methods that feel realistic for them.

His style is supportive and focused on outcomes that matter to the person. People who want help sorting through grief, addictive behaviors, or low confidence often find a focus on forgiveness, guilt, and life purpose helpful. Bennett aims to empower clients to make changes that last, while recognizing that change usually happens one step at a time.

Online support

Approaches that guide online sessions

Durrett often uses straightforward, evidence-based techniques that focus on changing unhelpful habits and building coping skills. One approach involves identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that increase stress and anxiety, then practicing alternative responses that reduce their impact. This helps with day-to-day worry and low mood.

Another common approach centers on managing addictive behaviors and impulsive urges through step-by-step planning and coping strategies. Sessions focus on triggers, practical routines, and realistic relapse prevention steps to support steady progress.

Finding the right mix of techniques is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and comfort level. Together they try approaches, review what helps, and adjust the plan as needed.

Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video lets people see facial cues and hold deeper conversations. Phone sessions can be helpful when bandwidth is limited or when a more mobile option is needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, between-session support, or when typing is preferred. These options increase flexibility and make regular progress more achievable.
