Dr. Benjamin Wilson, LMHC

LMHC in Indiana with 14 years of experience. Dr. Benjamin Wilson focuses on addictions, mood disorders, trauma, relationship and intimacy concerns, and coping with life changes. He uses client-centered work, cognitive behavioral ideas, existential questions, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing in sessions.

Benjamin Wilson speaks plainly about recovery and mental health. He draws on his own long-term recovery from co-occurring substance use and mental health issues. Sessions emphasize practical steps, clearer communication, and skills for handling stress and cravings. He also addresses codependency, communication problems, and process addictions such as gambling or problematic pornography use.

In the room he combines person-centered listening with structured tools. That means clients are heard while also learning specific techniques to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. He uses mindfulness to slow down overwhelming emotion and motivational interviewing to strengthen resolve for change.

Wilson has worked in behavioral health since 2006 and has 14 years of direct clinical experience. He also teaches in higher education and contributes to professional committees on addiction and clinical exams. This background informs a practical, evidence-aware approach rather than abstract theory.

Outside clinical work he gardens, plays guitar, and reads nonfiction. He lives in Hamilton County, Indiana with his wife and has two grown children. People who choose him can expect straightforward conversation, concrete strategies, and attention to both recovery and everyday living.
