Client-Centered and CBT Support Delivered Online
Benjamin works primarily from two complementary approaches. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding the client from their own viewpoint and building a trusting, respectful relationship that highlights personal strengths and resources. This approach is useful for people seeking a supportive space to explore identity, relationships and life transitions.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured, skills-based approach that helps identify unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaviour and introduces practical strategies to change them. CBT can be particularly helpful for difficulties such as anxiety, low mood and stress, and for developing coping tools that can be used between sessions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Benjamin works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best with their needs, goals and preferences. He tailors sessions and techniques as the work unfolds so the plan evolves with the client.
Online therapy with Benjamin is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, giving flexibility to fit therapy around work, family and daily life. These options make it easier to attend sessions from home or elsewhere and to continue consistent progress when in-person meetings are not possible.
