About Benjamin
He combines a person-centred way of working with cognitive behavioural ideas. This means he listens first, then helps people set practical goals and try small, manageable changes. Sessions focus on understanding thoughts, feelings and behaviours and on finding steps that can be used between appointments.
Benjamin has three years of professional experience and holds BACP registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. He has particular experience supporting LGBT and LGBTQ+ related concerns alongside a broad range of issues such as anxiety, depression, addictions and relationship strains.
In a typical meeting he will ask about what matters most to the person and agree clear aims for therapy. He offers techniques and strategies to practice outside sessions, and checks in about progress as therapy continues. This practical focus aims to make sessions feel useful week to week.
If someone is nervous about starting, Benjamin approaches the first meetings gently and without pressure. He encourages people to say what they need and adjusts the pace accordingly. To begin the process clients use the site’s Start Therapy button to complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions.

How these approaches work in online therapy
Benjamin uses a person-centred way of working that puts the client's experience first. This approach focuses on listening, understanding what matters to the person, and building on their strengths to tackle anger and related issues.He also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. CBT offers practical techniques to try between sessions, such as testing unhelpful thoughts and developing new coping behaviours for stress, anxiety or anger.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Benjamin will help people decide which methods fit best with their goals and preferences, and he adapts what happens in sessions as progress unfolds. That collaborative process shapes the plan rather than one fixed method being imposed.
If you are considering remote therapy, please confirm the session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online counselling can make it easier to fit appointments around work or family life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when those suit a busy day. Talk with the therapist when you start to agree how sessions will be arranged and what practical adjustments might help you get the most from therapy.
