  • "I've been working with Ben since July 2024, and my experience has been nothing short of transformative. Before starting therapy with Ben, I was apprehensive about opening up to someone new after disappointing experiences with previous therapists. However, from our very first session, Ben created a warm, non-judgmental, and safe environment that made it easy for me to be vulnerable and honest. Opening up has never been easy for me. I've always kept my thoughts and emotions guarded, worried about how they might be received. But with Ben, I found it surprisingly easy to share and speak openly about things I had been reluctant to explore. Ben's warmth and genuine compassion are evident in the way he listens, making it clear that he truly cares about understanding not just my words, but the deeper emotions and experiences behind them. Each session with Ben has become something I eagerly look forward to. I leave feeling lighter, with a clearer perspective and a renewed sense of hope for a better future. What stands out most is Ben's ability to balance empathy with insightful guidance. He has a way of asking the right questions, gently encouraging me to explore deeper layers of myself, and helping me see things from perspectives I hadn't considered before. This process hasn't always been easy – therapy is often challenging and requires facing parts of myself that I'd rather avoid – but with Ben by my side, I've felt supported every step of the way. His unwavering presence and patience have given me the courage to confront difficult truths and work through them in a constructive and healing manner. I've also found the ability to have virtual sessions over video call incredibly convenient and useful. It has made it easier for me to fit therapy into my schedule without the stress of commuting, allowing me to focus more on my healing journey. If you're considering taking the difficult step of starting therapy, I highly recommend Benjamin Eeles Counselling."

  • "Before deciding to contact Ben, I’ve never had the outlet that I so desperately needed, I’ve never talked about me. For my own wellbeing and happiness I knew that needed to change. From the first initial telephone conversation with Ben I knew I’d absolutely made the right decision, there was no pressure on me to share anything that I wasn’t comfortable with. However by my second face to face session I felt comfortable enough to share with Ben everything that I’d been through and I’ve honestly never looked back. Ben provides a safe, calm and caring space. Somehow even when you feel like you’re in your darkest moments, Ben has a natural talent to turn it around with a little humour and laughter. He’s never not failed to make me smile. I always look forward to our sessions every week."

His sessions have meant that I feel more positive and comfortable about my future and for that I'm truly grateful."

  • "I’ve only had two sessions with Benjamin so far. But from what I’ve noticed so far; he is easy to talk to, gives a comfortable atmosphere and goes at your own pace rather than noticing things and forcing them to be spoken about there and then. Ben is very good at reading your body language, listening intently to every word, and noticing smaller even finer details yourself would miss. Would highly recommend."

  • "I've been having sessions with Ben since early 2023, and I see the benefits of his work in my personal life every single day. From the very first session, Ben created a safe, comfortable environment for me to be able to fully express every feeling I had, and has worked with me consistently to keep making positive changes in my life. He is a kind, compassionate person who has encouraged me to become a more positive, confident version of myself, and I'm extremely grateful for his dedication to our sessions together, and making me feel seen and heard. Thank you Ben!"

  • "Counselling with Ben has been helpful, I was in a bad place, and it meant that I had a safe place to go to. The bond that was created between myself and Ben has helped, as it is scary talking to a stranger. Once I got more familiar with counselling it became much easier too. I would not change anything about my counselling, and would recommend Ben's services to someone I know!

  • "I definitely feel as though a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. Before, I wasn't able to talk about how I'm doing with anyone a lot of the time, so I feel a lot better. Talking about things and learning to write things down has really helped me. I would recommend Benjamin Eeles Counselling to those around me."

  • "I think it has helped me a lot, as it gives me a place to go and talk to someone, and I can get my worries and troubles out. I think just having a quiet place to talk to someone about my feelings and problems has helped me. "

  • "It's a very relaxed space, it makes me feel comfortable to talk about anything without the pressure of having to. It has helped to talk about my problems rather than keeping it in, but finding ways to express them."

  • "I think my counselling is good, because it helps me get through things, and I have benefitted from getting things off my chest. There is nothing I would change about my counselling as Ben is very helpful and understanding."

  • "I want to thanks to you, Benjamin, for the incredible support and guidance you've provided over the past three months. Your insights and encouragement have been instrumental in helping me grow and develop new skills. Through our sessions, I've seen a marked improvement in how I empower myself to handle conflict, and I’ve gained a deeper awareness of how my actions and communication—or lack thereof—affect those around me. This work has not only strengthened my communication skills but has also helped me clear up some longstanding misunderstandings. Most importantly, your guidance has given me a real understanding of my own self-worth, and I am genuinely grateful for that. Thank you for helping me realise these positive changes."
