About Benjamin

Benjamin ('Beni') Fleischer helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem, depression and the upheaval of life changes. He also supports those dealing with grief, anger, trauma and abuse, and mood variation such as bipolar. Beni writes plainly and invites clients to explore how their inner life links with what they do and feel each day.

Beni uses a conversational, reflective style. He encourages people to talk about both the obvious parts of life and the hidden influences beneath them. That might include family, community, religion or identity and how these shape beliefs and choices. Sessions focus on building awareness and noticing where change is possible.

His work draws on Client-Centred, Psychodynamic and Solution-Focused approaches. In practice that can mean listening closely, tracing patterns from the past, and setting small practical goals to try between sessions. The pace is set by the person in therapy, and sessions aim to be down-to-earth rather than technical.

Beni has six years' experience and works within the ethical framework of the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. He has worked in the NHS and with people from varied backgrounds, and he combines psychological listening with reflections shaped by his own life experience.

Sessions are offered in English, Hebrew and Yiddish, and international clients are accepted. To begin people use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability.

Step 3

Approaches that shape online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and offering acceptance so people feel heard and able to speak freely; it helps with low self-esteem, relationship strain and feeling stuck. Psychodynamic Therapy looks for patterns that began in earlier life and how they influence current reactions; this can be useful for repeated relationship difficulties and for understanding emotional blocks. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and small changes to move a person towards their goals, which often helps with stress, coping and day-to-day problems.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods best fit their needs, goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as different issues arise and progress is reviewed together.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as these are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, remove travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also enables people in different countries to work together, while keeping sessions adaptable to changing schedules and energy levels.
