About Benjamin
Benjamin ('Beni') Fleischer helps people who are struggling with anxiety, stress, depression and relationship difficulties. He supports those facing loss, trauma, anger, low self-esteem and big life changes. Beni works with people who are also coping with issues such as bipolar challenges, family problems, grief, and the fallout from infidelity or separation.
Beni uses a conversational and reflective style. He listens closely and aims to create space for people to name what feels hidden.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on understanding how past experiences and daily patterns shape current feelings and choices. He encourages practical steps that fit each person's life and pace. He draws on client-centred approaches that prioritise the person’s experience.
He also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at recurring patterns and Solution-Focused techniques to set small, achievable goals. The mix is adapted to what the individual finds most useful. Beni has worked in counselling for six years and has experience supporting people from varied backgrounds, including time working for the NHS.
He holds BACP accreditation, which means he works within that professional framework. Sessions are offered in English, Hebrew and Yiddish, and he accepts international clients. Therapy is available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange sessions once a suitable match is made.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s experience. The counsellor follows the client’s lead, listens without judgement and helps the person find their own answers. This approach suits people who need a supportive space to make sense of feelings and decisions.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at repeated patterns and early influences that shape how someone reacts to stress and relationships. It helps uncover hidden drivers of anxiety or anger so people can try new ways of relating and choosing.
Beni treats finding the right approach as a shared task. He discusses options with each person and adapts methods to goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. This collaborative process aims to balance exploring deeper issues with short-term practical steps.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face work when that feels important, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing support between sessions or when being on camera is difficult. These options make it easier to maintain regular sessions and to try different formats as needs change.
