How Ben’s approaches translate to online therapy

Ben often draws on Client-Centred Therapy to prioritise a respectful, listening approach that helps people feel understood. That method focuses on the person in front of the counsellor and supports work on topics like self-esteem, grief and relationship stress.

He also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to break down unhelpful thoughts and try practical changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, anger and low mood because it gives clear steps to test and adjust thinking and behaviour.

Finding the right way of working is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and adjust the mix of approaches over time. Sessions include discussion, skill practice and homework when that helps progress.

Please confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy around work or family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can help arrange a practical plan so sessions suit day-to-day life.
