About Benjamin

Benjamin ('Beni') Fleischer works on stress, anxiety, relationships, self esteem, depression, grief, trauma and related issues. He uses talking therapy that encourages people to look at how they relate to themselves and others. He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has six years' experience.

Beni describes a person's life in two parts: what is revealed and what is hidden. He helps people notice the hidden influences - family, community, religion, background and identity - and how these affect feelings and choices. Sessions focus on making those influences clearer so people can make different decisions in their lives.

His style draws on client-centred work that prioritises the person's own experience, psychodynamic ideas about underlying patterns, and solution-focused techniques for practical change. That mix is used to support work on loss, anger, feelings of emptiness, relationship breakdown, and long-standing patterns such as avoidant behaviour or codependency.

Beni has worked in NHS settings and with people from a wide range of backgrounds. He describes particular experience supporting men around mid-life issues, though he works with many other concerns listed above. His practice follows the BACP's ethical framework and his work is professionally supervised.

Sessions are offered in English, Hebrew and Yiddish. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, select the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How his approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's experience and gives space for them to lead the conversation; it can help with anxiety, low mood and self-esteem by building clearer self-understanding. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at recurring patterns and the hidden influences from early life that shape feeling and behaviour; it can be useful for grief, trauma and long-standing relationship patterns. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and small changes that can be tried between sessions to improve coping and everyday functioning.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. He will discuss goals and preferences with each person and adapt the mix of methods to what seems most helpful. This is a collaborative process aimed at working out what makes the most sense for the issues brought to sessions.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, cut travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often use remote sessions to offer more scheduling options and to support people who live in different places, including international clients.
