Although I regularly work with clients of all ages and genders, the majority of my clients tend to be young men, who have unresolved feelings or experiences which are impacting on their daily lives. I work as an integrative counsellor, from a person-centred perspective. This means that you can bring whatever you wish to the session, while we work at your pace and depth. I employ theory and techniques from CBT, psychodynamic and other therapeutic philosophies which I feel may be useful. Where we start is not the important thing as ultimately, you will naturally discover the things that matter the most to you.

Hi, my name is Ben and I am a Consult Clinical Psychologist and Clinical Neuropsychologist at Project Trauma. I set up Project Trauma to provide the kind of personalised, compassionate psychological support that people need following events in their life which they have struggled to cope with. Psychological distress can affect anyone and everyone will have a different reaction to traumatic events in their life. We all have different tolerance and ways of coping, but at some stage in our life we will all need help from somewhere.

I'm a registered member of the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) - a statutory regulator of health care professionals within the UK, as well as The British Psychological Society (BPS). My approach is relational – I work with clients in a way that aims to help them explore the world from their perspective so as to facilitate insight and self-actualisation. I favour an integrative model, incorporating psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioural approaches into my practice. However, I am also able to offer more specialised and focussed interventions depending on client need.

Sometimes, we can feel overwhelmed by life and we don't recognize why we feel the way we do. This can lead to us feeling disconnected with others but also with ourselves. Sometimes the problem is not always clear and by talking things through in a safe space, it can help us understand what is happening. Navigating issues through a therapeutic relationship can empower us to progress in your journey of self-discovery and thrive in life. I can offer you a safe, confidential space for you to feel heard, bring any issues that may be affecting you and your ability to flourish.

People access therapy for many different reasons, but generally we are most likely to reach out for help when our usual coping strategies are no longer effective. At these times it is not always helpful or possible to turn to family or friends, and their well-meaning support may not always help. I will provide a calm and confidential space where you will be able to safely share what is troubling you.

I work with adults navigating emotionally demanding lives — in professional, caregiving, or personally stressful contexts — who feel overwhelmed, burnt out, or stuck in repetitive patterns. I offer online therapy across the UK, helping clients understand what drives their difficulties and feel steadier, resilient, and more like themselves. Many of the people I work with are capable and responsible, used to supporting others, yet struggle to access support for themselves. They want more than coping strategies; they want insight, lasting change, and practical ways to manage the emotional load of demanding work and life circumstances.

I am a Consultant Psychologist and work specifically with people who have OCD or Trauma or both. In 27 years of specialist practice, I have helped 1000+ people regain their lives. It's not your fault if previous therapy hasn't yet yielded the desired results. Often, this is due to a lack of therapist expertise. I tailor therapy to exactly what is needed for YOUR issues. Therefore, your time & monetary investment is often less with me than with other non-specialist psychologists. I see only a small number of clients, so I can offer you the highest level of service. I currently hold a waitlist. Not currently accepting AXA insurance.
