TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF

I’m Caitlyn Benson: a police social worker, therapist, wife, mom, and Marine Corps veteran. I earned my Bachelor’s in Social Work from Purdue Northwest and my Master’s in Social Work from The Ohio State University. Originally from Wisconsin, I put down roots in Indiana to raise a family and serve the community I now call home.

My passion lies in supporting first responders and their families. I focus on practical, brain-based approaches that help people manage stress, heal, and build resilience. I’m trained in EMDR and believe growth should be realistic and sustainable.

Outside of work, I enjoy learning new hobbies that I'll abandon after a few months, cooking, spending time outdoors, living room dance parties, and adding to my ever-growing collection of houseplants. I also serve on the boards for Leadership La Porte County and Anam Cara Stables, staying connected to programs that strengthen both people and the community.

TELL US ABOUT YOUR business

Resiliency Recovered, LLC was built with first responders in mind, but our services extend to anyone seeking support, like teens, adults, and families. I’m passionate about providing practical, brain-based tools that help people manage stress, process trauma, and build resilience. I also love educating the community on mental health and wellness, breaking down complex concepts into strategies people can actually use. In addition to therapy, I provide consulting to agencies and businesses on leadership through the lens of mental health and the brain, incorporating organizational and industrial psychology principles to help teams function at their best. Services include EMDR, somatic-based therapy, and other neuroscience-informed approaches tailored to each individual or organization. At Resiliency Recovered, LLC, we meet people where they are by helping them learn about themselves and focusing on real, achievable goals.
