Ben Brackenbury

I am an integrative psychotherapist offering a compassionate and confidential space to explore the challenges life may bring. My approach combines person-centred and psychodynamic modalities, tailoring therapy to meet your unique needs.

I understand that talking to a stranger about deeply personal issues can feel daunting. That’s why creating an environment of trust and safety is central to my work. In my experience a strong, positive relationship with your therapist is one of the most important factors in successful therapy. My aim is to help you feel truly heard and supported as we navigate your concerns together.

During our sessions, we will explore what is happening in your life in the here and now while also gaining insight into how childhood experiences and past relationships shape who you are today.

Whether you are seeking support for a specific issue or looking to better understand yourself, I am here to listen and help you move forward.

I have experience working with a wide range of issues, including low self-esteem, lack of confidence, loss, sexuality, depression, anxiety.

While I work with individuals from all walks of life, I have a particular interest in supporting men as they navigate challenges such as relationships, identity, career pressures, and emotional well-being. Together, we can explore patterns, deepen self-awareness, and work towards meaningful change.

The first assessment session is an opportunity for you to get a feel if we might be a good fit, similarly for me to make sure I am the right therapist to support you in what you need.

We can explore your expectations for therapy and I can share how we might work together moving forwards.
