Gabriel (Gabor) Bene

Gabriel (Gabor) Bene offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by anger, stress or anxiety. He welcomes straightforward conversations and helps clients find ways to manage strong emotions and get back to daily life. Gabriel presents himself as warm and direct, aiming to make the first step feel less daunting.

He is accredited by the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP). Gabriel trained in psychology at undergraduate level and has further postgraduate study that informs his use of cognitive approaches. He draws on a mixture of approaches so sessions can include talking, practical exercises, and simple skills to try between meetings.

In sessions he focuses on what is happening now and on how feelings link to everyday choices and relationships. He often works with patterns that keep difficult emotions active, and helps people try small changes that reduce emotional intensity. Gabriel uses empathy alongside direct feedback to help clients notice what helps and what does not.

Clients who come with anger, trauma, relationship strain, addiction concerns, or issues like sleep and self-esteem can expect a clear plan for sessions. He also supports people dealing with grief, career stress, parenting strains, ADHD and sexuality-related concerns. Gabriel aims to balance practical tools with space to talk about values and meaning.

People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. Gabriel works in English and accepts clients from outside the United Kingdom as well.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy emphasises understanding relationship patterns and how early bonds shape current reactions. It helps when anger or anxiety feels linked to past hurts and attachment wounds. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioural changes. It is useful for stress, anxiety, sleep problems and anger management. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centres on identifying core emotions and how they affect close relationships, which can help with intimacy and communication issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as progress is reviewed and new priorities emerge.

Confirm the session formats available before booking so you know how meetings will be held. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use practical exercises and worksheets between sessions so learning continues between meetings.
