Learn More About Ben

Background information:

I have worked with people overcoming mental health problems since 2007. This has included anxiety, depression and trauma and learning disabilities.

Meeting Ben:

I will make sure you are made to feel welcome and feel there can be a relationship between us. This is the most important thing for me.

I may have qualifications to be a counsellor and therapist, but you being comfortable is much more important. My first aim is to provide a non-judgemental space for you to speak openly and honestly with me

Difficulties Ben helps with:

I am a trained CBT therapist meaning we work on situational, behavioural, and personal problems. I listen compassionately and work to tackle depression, anxiety, low self esteem, stress, relationship difficulties, trauma and adjustment to personal real-life problems.

Interests outside of therapy:

I am a massive football fan. I play football for a local team and I am a huge Liverpool fan.
