I have worked in a variety of settings with people of all ages who are struggling with eating normally. I believe that eating disorders serve a coping function for individuals, especially when they have experienced stress and trauma. That is, while they are not the most healthy way to deal with emotions, memories, or reactions, they do make the individual feel better in the moment. I work from a strengths based approach, meaning that I seek to build on what the person is doing well, while at the same time increasing coping resources that ultimately will be substituted in place of the eating disorder. I want to help my clients feel better and be healthy for both the moment AND the long term. In working with a client, I work holistically, focusing on mind, body, and spirit. I work collaboratively with clients, and seek to be a resource to the family.

I seek to help clients integrate their own personal and spiritual beliefs into the counseling process. I would characterize my counseling as “spiritually sensitive” as I am aware of the centrality of body, mind, and soul. I am committed to, and hold as sacred, each client's perspective and prerogative follow their own inclination as they pursue their spirituality. My own spiritual journey is distinctly Christian as I have experienced Jesus as gentle and life giving. I have known Christ’s love to extend outside tradition, norm, and moral dictates. Healing has been found for me in a sort of homecoming of self-awareness in proper reference to the selfless love and acceptance of Christ. A spiritual perspective coupled with psychological understanding are a strength of my practice.

Treatment Model: I believe that we are the experts on our own lives. Because of this belief, I work to help each client find their own wisdom and learn to make decisions based on that wisdom. There are often times in our lives when messages from others or society in general make it difficult to hear that inner wisdom. This is where therapy can be helpful. Having another individual who is trained to listen and respond in a supportive yet challenging way makes therapy different from talking to a friend. It can sometimes be difficult to push ourselves to make changes; a therapist can serves as an external support and cheerleader while providing the accountability to make tough changes.
Dr. Benton treats Anorexia and Bulimia; males and females, children, adolescents, and adults. She also works with Athletes and Compulsive Exercisers and Compulsive Overeating.

Treatment Model: As a therapist and registered dietitian, I combine my knowledge to address the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of the client. In therapy, I commonly use CBT and psychodynamic approaches, with some Jungian techniques for creative expression. I am a Christian trained specifically in Christian integration when the client welcomes it, but am respectful of the spiritual needs of all clients regardless of spiritual background. From a nutrition standpoint, I emphasize a non-diet approach to developing a healthy relationship with food and normalize eating through the use of a meal plan and teaching healthy coping skills, progressing to intuitive eating.
