Client-centered and trauma-informed online therapy

He also uses solution-focused therapy to identify practical steps and short-term strategies that reduce everyday stress and anxiety, helping clients target immediate concerns and regain a sense of control. His training in trauma-focused approaches informs how he recognises and responds to the effects of traumatic experiences on both mind and body, offering care that is sensitive to those needs.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Benjamin works collaboratively with each person to decide which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts the plan as work progresses so the client feels involved in every step.

These options make it easier for people in different locations or with busy lives to access registered professionals and therapists without needing to travel, while maintaining a consistent and focused therapeutic relationship.
