More about Ben

- BACP, NCPS
I am registered in the UK with 3 years of professional clinical experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, anger management, self esteem, confidence, and depression. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you.
I integrate more than one counselling theory in my work. I combine the warmth and acceptance of the person-centred approach with the analytical skills of psychodynamic theory and the practical strategies of coaching, and mindfulness.
It can come as a surprise that counselling can be hard work. Counselling is not a passive process, but an active one. These are your sessions, for you to use as you see fit. While I will listen, guide the conversation, and offer strategies where appropriate, I cannot wave a magic wand. You are the expert on your life and any change will come from you. Sometimes counselling can be confusing, difficult, or upsetting, but it can also be joyous and freeing, full of lightbulb moments. Your welfare is at the heart of what I do, and I will support you so that any difficult times can be managed.
Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
