Ben Milano is a Jacksonville Florida native. He spent his early years skateboarding, playing snare drum in marching band, playing video games, and being consistently disappointment with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Ben went to Florida State University for his undergraduate degree and obtained a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences. At the end of his degree, Ben recognized that being in a lab and looking at fruit flies all day is… kind of miserable. He then did what any sensible person in their mid twenties does - travel the country for a bit and then go get a masters degree.

Ben’s passion for mental health stems from his early career working with special needs children. He began nurturing a love for being with people during some of their hardest moments working in crisis management with at-risk youth. He then went to the University of North Florida to obtain a Master of Social Work degree.

Ben has been working and training as a therapist in college counseling and private practice settings for the last four years. He specializes in using experiential therapies to help transform complex trauma, anxieties, and depression.
