I would highly recommend Ben, I've had several sessions with him as well as others in the past, and hands down prefer his sessions. His approach to the sessions is both professional and comforting. I feel safe, heard and comfortable to talk about anything.

More about Ben
- 4 years' experience
- Male
- BACP
I am a counsellor and psychotherapist based in the UK and registered with the BACP. I trained at Leeds Beckett University. I have over 15 years of experience supporting a diverse range of people with many different issues (4 years as a therapist and 12 years as a support worker). I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, family conflicts, & coping with grief and loss. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I am an integrative therapist which means I draw on different ideas and methods depending on the needs and preferences of each person. I have an interactive approach that encourages self exploration and self compassion. I know that sometimes life can feel hard to navigate and we can all struggle to cope with difficult emotions, unwanted thoughts or painful relationship experiences. I believe that whatever the presenting issue is, every person has it in them to find their way to a calmer, happier and more fulfilling life. I am here to carefully support my clients through hard times and to help each person find the best path to reach their goals.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
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.
