About Benjamin

Benjamin ('Beni') Fleischer is a counsellor registered with the BACP and has six years of practice in the United Kingdom. He lists anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, self-esteem and depression among the concerns he supports, and he also works with grief, trauma and life changes.

Beni describes people as living in two realms - the obvious parts of life and the hidden parts. He helps people talk through how background, family, religion, gender and other forces shape how they feel and act. Sessions focus on noticing patterns that limit choice and on exploring what lies beneath repeated feelings and behaviours.

His approach draws on client-centred, psychodynamic and solution-focused ideas. That means there is space to tell the story of what has happened, to look at how past experience shapes the present, and to set small, practical goals for change. Conversations are conversational and work at the pace the person prefers.

Beni has worked with a wide range of people in NHS settings and in private practice. He mentions particular experience supporting men in mid-life, though he works with a broader set of concerns tied to relationships and personal history. He also lists focus areas such as abandonment, codependency and infidelity.

Sessions are framed around the individual’s process and preferences. He speaks English, Hebrew and Yiddish, and notes that international clients can be seen. The site’s booking flow asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session.

How his approaches translate to online work

Benjamin blends client-centred, psychodynamic and solution-focused ways of working to support people with anxiety, relationship struggles and life transitions. Client-centred work means the session is shaped around what the person brings, with the counsellor listening closely and reflecting what is said to deepen understanding. Psychodynamic work looks at how past experience and hidden patterns influence present feelings and relationships, which can help when anxiety or avoidance keeps repeating. Solution-focused work concentrates on small, practical steps and goals that can reduce immediate stress and build confidence.

Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. The counsellor discusses preferences, needs and goals with the client and agrees together which methods to use. This collaborative process helps people try different ways of working until something feels useful.

The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting therapy around everyday life and reducing travel time, which can make it easier to keep appointments. Because the available session formats are not specified in the biography, confirm the current online session options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often use a range of formats to suit quieter surroundings, shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require being on camera, which can help people manage social anxiety when beginning therapy.
