Psychotherapy is a journey. We begin to look carefully and honestly at ourselves. In time, feelings surface and are freed. We change.
We come to therapy when something is too painful to bear. A crisis: loss, death, a failing relationship, trauma.
Sometimes there isn’t anything clear. We’re not feeling alive, we’re unhappy, purposeless, lonely, or frightened.
Seeking help is an expression of hope for something better.
Welcome to my private psychotherapy practice! Here I offer depth psychotherapy in Abingdon, Oxford and online.
I offer a warm, supportive space into which you can bring your whole self. Together, we can explore what is difficult and grow through compassion and challenge.
I began this work in 2016 and draw on over 10 years personal experience of helping people in difficulty, my own journey through therapy, and my experience of practising and teaching meditation.
I am accredited by the UK Counsel of Psychotherapists and the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society. I hold a master’s degree in Mindfulness Based Core Process Psychotherapy.
I am helped in my work by a senior supervising psychotherapist, and by the clinical team at the Karuna Institute.
I carry full professional indemnity insurance and as part of following data protection law I am registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office.
I have also had an engaging career in technology where I’ve mentored teams and provided technical expertise across various sectors, including commerce, finance, education, and charity.
Since the beginning of my practice, it’s been my privileged to see people grow, heal and become more alive. To ask a question or arrange a free introductory meeting, please get in touch.

How clients describe our work
“ I found the experience of being really listened to by someone who I trusted and could rely upon transformed my relationship to some of the things that had happened in my past. ”
Student
“ Ben always seems calm, attentive and purposeful. In each session we unravel a little bit more, taking out the knots in the things I’m stuck with. ”
Academic
“ I feel like I’ve become interested in myself again - feel like I have as much right to be here as anyone else. Taking an hour a week to pay attention to what’s actually going on for me has been transforming. ”
