Benjamin Roberts , NCPS

Benjamin Roberts is a UK-based therapist with three years of clinical experience who brings a compassionate, person-centred approach to work with addictions, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, and depression. He holds the NCPS credential, which indicates formal training in counselling and psychotherapy and reflects his commitment to professional standards and ongoing development. Benjamin combines Person-Centred and Compassion-Focused Therapy to create a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients are listened to and supported as they explore what matters most to them.

He has particular experience supporting people living with chronic health conditions, including CFS/ME, and working with autistic clients and those with disabilities. His practice also addresses a wide range of concerns such as stress, anxiety, substance and process addictions, family and relationship problems, self-harm, trauma-related difficulties, and sexuality or identity questions. Benjamin works with LGBT clients and brings sensitivity to issues around divorce, isolation, guilt, and forgiveness.

Benjamin views clients as the experts in their own lives and seeks to collaborate on practical, evidence-informed strategies that fit each person’s needs and goals. His focus is on helping people feel heard, building self-compassion, and supporting sustained change over time.

Person-Centred and Compassion-Focused Online Support

Benjamin uses Person-Centred Therapy to place the client’s own experience at the heart of the work, offering empathic listening and acceptance to help people clarify values, make choices, and build motivation for change. This approach is often helpful for issues like low self-esteem, relationship concerns, and the emotional impact of chronic illness.

He also draws on Compassion-Focused Therapy, which teaches skills to reduce self-criticism and cultivate self-kindness. These techniques can support people managing depression, shame, addiction-related guilt, and the distress that follows trauma or difficult life transitions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Benjamin works with each person to explore what feels most useful and adapts methods based on individual goals, preferences, and needs. He treats therapy as a shared journey toward clearer coping strategies and greater emotional resilience.

Online therapy with Benjamin is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible access to support. These options can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, reduce travel demands, and maintain continuity of care across changing schedules while working with licensed professionals and therapists.
