About me
My name is Ben Weiner. I am a BACP registered therapist in London.
I tend to work with clients where everything looks fine on the outside. - career, friends, family, responsibilities - managed.
Inside, it might feel a bit different - causing internal conflict.
Together, we create a safe, supportive space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences.
I work with people who feel the weight of responsibility and struggle with the strain of keeping everything together. We create space to pause, talk honestly, and begin moving from burnout and self-criticism toward balance, meaning, and a more compassionate relationship with yourself.
Therapy is available in Enfield, Finsbury Park or online.
My work is inclusive and affirming, for all races, genders, sexualities, and backgrounds welcome. I have a particular focus in welcoming men and fathers to therapy.
Training, qualifications & experience
With hundreds of hours of experience both in-person and online, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to my therapeutic practice.
I've worked in both private practice and with a charity focused on supporting families affected by domestic and child abuse, which has deeply influenced my approach around trauma.
Training & Qualifications
- Society of Analytical Psychology (Jungian) - foundation course (1 year)
- Minster Centre, one of Europe’s leading centres for Integrative Psychotherapy and Counselling - Fast track foundation and diploma in Counselling - 4 year course with strict requirements for progression and qualification.
I hold a Diploma in Counselling and am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), ensuring I adhere to the highest ethical standards in my practice.
In addition to my therapeutic work, I have decades of experience in the corporate world, giving me valuable insight into the challenges faced by clients balancing work and personal life. I have also worked as a writer and filmmaker, using these creative skills to explore the imaginative aspects of your inner experience.
Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

Further information
If you’ve never had therapy before, it’s completely normal to feel a little unsure.
The first session is an opportunity for us to see if we’re a good fit for each other. I will ask you what brings you to therapy, and together we’ll explore what’s led you to seek support.
I’ll also take the time to explain how I work, and we’ll discuss your goals for therapy. If you decide to continue, I will provide a contract outlining the basics of how we’ll work together.
The therapy I offer is most effective as a weekly, open-ended arrangement, but if you prefer a more time-limited approach, we can certainly discuss that option.
People who come to my practice often find that I offer the compassion and support needed to meet them exactly where they are.
