About Benjamin
Benjamin ('Beni') Fleischer helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship strain, depression, grief and life changes. He also offers support for trauma and abuse, anger, bipolar difficulties and a range of concerns including codependency, abandonment and infidelity. Beni's approach is practical and grounded. He aims to help people feel more in control and make clearer choices about their lives.
Beni works in a calm, non-judgemental way. He invites clients to talk about both what is visible and what feels hidden beneath the surface. Conversations focus on understanding patterns, where they come from and what might shift them. Sessions move at each person's pace so change can feel manageable rather than rushed.
He draws on client-centred methods that place the person's experience at the heart of the work. He also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at how past experiences influence present feelings. Solution-focused techniques are used to set small, achievable goals and notice progress as it happens.
Beni has six years' experience and works within the framework of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He has worked in the NHS and with people from many backgrounds. Languages spoken are English, Hebrew and Yiddish, and he accepts clients from outside the United Kingdom.

How these approaches work in online counselling
Benjamin uses client-centred work to prioritise what matters to the person in front of him, offering attentive listening and reflection to help people feel heard and understood. This approach is useful for issues like low self-esteem, relationship strain and grief. Psychodynamic ideas are used to look at how past experiences shape current feelings and patterns, which can help with longstanding difficulties such as abandonment worries and repeating relationship problems. Solution-focused work aims to identify small, practical steps and realistic goals to build momentum and measure progress.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will discuss what feels most useful, check goals and adapt methods based on how the client responds. Together they decide which mix of listening, deeper exploration and goal-setting suits each person.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the exact session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also means people living outside the United Kingdom can access his support, subject to scheduling and location factors. The focus remains on practical, gradual change that fits everyday commitments.
