About Gabriel
Gabriel (Gabor) Bene offers straightforward, compassionate support for people facing anxiety, stress, depression and related struggles. He explains things plainly and helps clients find practical steps that fit their life. Gabriel is BACP accredited, and speaks English to people in the United Kingdom and beyond.
He draws on six years of experience as a counsellor and psychotherapist. Sessions focus on what feels most urgent for the client, such as sleep difficulties, low self-esteem, anger or coping after loss. Gabriel uses clear tools to help people manage symptoms and make changes that last.
His work combines cognitive behavioural ideas with client-centred listening and attention to attachment patterns. That means clients can expect both practical strategies and space to make sense of how their relationships affect them. He also uses emotion-focused and existential approaches when people want to examine deeper meaning or emotion in their lives.
Gabriel has supported people with trauma, addictions, sexual or intimacy concerns, career pressures and neurodiversity issues such as autism and ADHD. He also helps with body image, caregiving stress and long-term health challenges using a tailored plan for each person.
Online formats include video, phone, live chat and text messaging. Sessions run via a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a time that suits them.

Therapeutic approaches and online options
Attachment-based work looks at how early and current relationship patterns shape feelings and reactions. It helps when personal history or connection to others affects day-to-day mood and behaviour. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person without judgement, giving space to explore feelings and find personal solutions. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Gabriel will work collaboratively to choose methods that align with a person's goals, preferences and the issues they bring. That can mean starting with practical CBT tools, then using attachment or emotion-focused work as deeper needs emerge.
Online therapy makes sessions more flexible and easier to fit into busy lives. Video calls allow a richer face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options help people access therapy from different locations and schedules while working with registered or accredited professionals.
