About Ben

Hi, I’m Ben

I’m a certified Psychotherapeutic Counsellor (MNCPS Accred.) I primarily work with issues related to difficult relationships, trauma, identity and Anxiety.

My approach is based on training in Transactional Analysis psychotherapy. I am a registered Psychothereapeutic Counsellor with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Service (NCPS) and the Brittish Asociation of Pschotherapy and Counselling (BACP).

I work from my own private personal therapy rooms in central Brighton and also Saltdean, as well as online.

Therapy with me

Therapy can be a valuable resource during difficult times, offering a supportive relationship where you can explore and work through the challenges you’re facing. It also provides an opportunity to develop a deeper understanding of how past experiences shape our personality, self-image, and relationship patterns.

I have expertise in supporting individuals through complex personal and interpersonal issues, and I work with a diverse range of relationships—including couples, those practicing polyamory, and individuals from LGBTQ+ and mixed-ethnic communities.

I offer a secure, non-judgmental environment where we can explore present challenges by understanding their roots and working together toward the outcomes you hope to achieve.

My practice provides a confidential space for adults (18+) seeking individual or relationship therapy, available both online and in person at my offices in central Brighton and Saltdean.

I offer Single-Session, Short-Term, and Long-Term therapy options.

  • Individual therapy: Weekly sessions

  • Couples and Group Relationship therapy: Typically recommended for 8–12 weekly sessions or more

Fees: vary depending on the work undertaken, from £65 for individual therapy, from £75 for couples. More information can be found via:
