About me

Hi there and thanks for stopping by on my profile. If you're reading this then it's likely you need help with the kind of pain that's making it difficult to concentrate on or even know what you're doing in life. And this life pain might be affecting the focus you have on your relationship or what you do. Or maybe your relationship or what you do is affecting this life pain, or bringing your attention further towards it. It might feel like you're on a boat adrift on a river, not knowing where you're going towards, how you got there or that you even have any oars. And it's hard to talk about or even articulate the way you feel.

At your own pace, we can to get to know the problem, and we can at least lessen the pain and find clarity. And if we can get to know the problem well and increase clarity, then you might find you have something better than lessening the pain. For I specialise in helping people understand their pain, as it tends to be a window into what we value or believe.

I'm from a background that includes a wide variety of mental health states, from better to worse. But the confusion this gave me growing up had me develop a keen interest, confidence and passion for helping people navigate a wide variety of issues. Everyone has a story to tell, and maybe it's time you got to know yours. And get back your essence, or oars.

After trying a few different therapists, I settled on Ben he has been a great help in exploring my own understanding of myself and my ability to communicate. He allows you to speak un-interrupted allowing opportunities for self reflection.

I would highly recommend Ben

Ben is amazing! Only been speaking to him for a couple of weeks but I feel like I have gone places I haven't with anyone else. He is very responsive and is keen to have an ongoing dialogue over message as well as video - feels like I'm almost getting two therapists in one! So thankful to have been paired with him.

I've only been working with Ben for a few weeks, but so far he has been great. A much better match for me compared to previous therapists I've worked with. Ben is proactive and really seems to care about my progress. It feels like we're building on what we discussed previously and working towards a goal together. I'd highly recommend Ben.

Ben’s style of therapy really speaks to me. He has amazing recall and the way he paces our conversations and the amount of ground we can cover in one session is perfect for me.
