Nate Benham

Therapist

Virtual • Oregon


Hi! I’m Nate. I'm a therapist licensed in New Mexico and Oregon who works with children, adolescents, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship challenges, identity, and men's issues. Before becoming a therapist, I spent years leading wilderness expeditions — an experience that shaped how I think about growth, connection, empowerment, and personal excellence. I use art therapy and play therapy with younger clients, and draw from CBT, narrative therapy, motivational interviewing, and experiential approaches with teens and adults. I show up as a real person in session — honest, direct, and occasionally funny when it helps.
