Benjamin Ng, BACP

Benjamin Ng is a psychotherapist with a master’s degree and more than ten years of clinical experience supporting individuals and couples. He combines a warm, grounded presence with an engaged, thoughtful approach, and is willing to name difficult patterns gently rather than simply offering platitudes.

Working integratively, Benjamin draws on psychodynamic thinking, family systems ideas, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people understand where their patterns come from and to identify what is helpful in the present. He aims to make sense of repeating themes in relationships and self-experience, while also focusing on practical steps that align with each person’s values and goals.

Benjamin has particular experience with relationship difficulties - including difficulties within the self - grief, addiction, anxiety, low self-worth, and questions of identity. His practice attends to a wide range of concerns such as trauma and abuse, parenting and family issues, intimacy-related problems, and career or life transitions. He also works with themes like attachment, abandonment, codependency, and caregiver stress.

The practice Benjamin holds is diverse in ethnicity, sexuality, culture, and gender identity, and he pays attention to the wider social and structural factors that shape a person’s experience. He aims to offer a space where difficult material can be acknowledged without pressure to perform, and he balances listening with gentle challenge when that will help the work move forward. Choosing a therapist is an important step, and Benjamin recognises the courage it takes to begin or return to therapy.
