Bio: Hi there! My name is Benji and I offer trauma-informed peer support that is based in abolitionist, decolonial values.
Underlying my work is the core belief that you are on the expert on your own healing but that we do some of our most profound healing with others who understand what we are going through. My role is not to fix you but to help you navigate your journey with skill, care and friendship.
Some of my lenses include: attachment theory, Internal Family Systems, Structural Dissociation of the Personality, Brainspotting, somatics, decolonial Mad theory, and harm reduction.
I am particularly well-versed in: chronic illness, grief, dissociation, trauma, mixed-race identity, substance use, street-involvement, obsessive thoughts and anxiety and wanting to die.
I am not a mandatory reporter and do not use carceral approaches to crisis.
