This is the program I was looking for more than 10 years. This transform my way of deal with anxiety. And I found the rout of the problem. Is like finding a switch and put it off. However is even better when I found balance. Game changing! My head is thinking faster and less heavy. I recommend trying might help you too. Good Luck! I still under their care but I am hoping is not for long as is not a dependence. Better what I said is trying yourself.

I am grateful!
Thanks Ben!

Ben is very professional and explains every part of the science very clearly. Ben also has a witty and humorous personality which really enlightens the experience and lessens the intensity. Overall great gentleman who I’d recommend to all. More...

Within 1 session Ben has changed my life!
I was getting border line non functioning and I have done more this past month then in 10 years.
Unlocking what's in your head and just putting the right perspective on how to think. He pushes you to find the light yourself without companion and not being overbearing.
We owe this man our family love and happiness. My oldest is 8 and I had never taken him anywhere. In one month I have taken all of them every where and a vacation
They are all smiles.

Thank you so so so much Ben, you have given me a new meaning and lease on life!

Within the first call with Ben he talked me through the program and it instantly became clear where I had been going wrong. Within the first session of working with Ben my OCD completely went away, something I had suffered severely with for around 15 years. This was due to Ben talking me through the process and teaching me how to implement it correctly into my life. Ben was very educated on the science behind anxiety disorders and had a deep understanding on recovery therefore any question I had regarding my recovery was met with reassuring and helpful answer or solution.

I can't recommend Ben enough for guiding me through understanding the reasons behind my anxiety. I have struggled for years now trying to understand why I get so anxious and let it get the better of me, sometimes for reasons that I don't understand myself. Through calming and sensible logic, Ben has helped me identify the real me underneath my anxiety. This has been immensely helpful in coping with day to day life and coming to the end of coaching, I have noticed a massive difference in how I cope with my anxiety which is something I never thought would go away. Thank you Ben :) More...

I struggled to enact this programme as prescribed because of my underlying severe CFS, yet the guidance and insights within the programme have been the key to escaping the tyranny of my anxiety disorder. I would strongly recommend to anyone in a similar situation to me - all-consuming GAD/OCD with underlying severe CFS - that they give this programme serious consideration.
Ben has been an accommodative, empathetic and considerate sage. I would highly recommend him as a guide through your process of recovery and liberation.

I started the programme 3 months ago and I can honestly say it was life changing and has completely changed my outlook. I am a young woman working in the real estate industry and I suffered with anxiety to the point where I struggled to go outdoors because of fear taking over me. The programme is perfectly set out and explained so clearly. Ben was so helpful, made me feel very comfortable and easy to talk to. I’m so glad I done the programme and I can’t believe how much has changed in such a few months and when I look back it is such a distant memory. Thanks very much Ben. More...

I'm currently an undergraduate Psychology student, and a few months ago when, because of extremely high levels of anxiety, I felt so done with life, I found this program online and it has changed my life forever! Ben has been an amazing coach, which was able to create both a friendly but also a professional relationship that made it easier to get involved in the program. I’m honestly shocked to say that after struggling almost all my life with anxiety, I have been completely healed. I have recommended this journey to everyone and I will keep doing so! More...

For some context I’m a psychology student and I thought I had anxiety my whole life although it got worse as a teenager, then it took years to get better. Then it happened again in the middle of 2022 but far worse then I’ve experienced and I thought I couldnt deal with this for the next few years so after a couple of months I did a search on bark. At first I thought I’d prefer a female but then Ben called me and you could just tell instantly how much he genuinely cares about helping people and he makes you feel so comfortable and safe during sessions. But most importantly, he teaches you to find hope and optimism at one of the worst times in your life which is something I didn’t know was possible. I thought I wanted to be a clinical psychologist but they teach you symptoms can be managed. Ben and psycheducational therapy teaches you that once you take the reigns, symptoms will go away. Completely. And if they flare up from time to time as you heal, you are more than capable of remaining calm. I could not recommend Ben and psychoeducational therapy enough. If you need help, getting it can seem so scary but I promise you, it is so worth it. There will be bad days as you flush it out of your symptoms and new ones will appear but it makes the good days that much better. You don’t have to suffer, please contact Ben if you have the money to do so. Your mental health is worth the investment, because it truly is an investment. More...

I found Ben thanks to a close friend who, similarly to me, was struggling with really bad anxiety. For context, I am a Psychology student in Oxford, and I have lived with anxiety for as long as I can remember, and it would impact every aspect of my life, from trivial things to major ones like not being able to take a bus to town and being forced to stay home. By studying Psychology I had hoped that not only would I be able to help others in the future, but also myself, however it wasn't until my first session with Ben that I saw that I could really get better. Ben was incredibly encouraging throughout the process and explained everything incredibly well, having studied Psychology it has also helped me understand everything on a deeper level. At first I was anxious, I thought that nothing could help me and that I would be stuck in a perpetual loop of anxiety forever, but now, having gone through the programme I can see that it wasn't going to be forever, my anxiety tricked me into thinking it was. I truly cannot recommend this programme enough. It has taken so much weight off my shoulders and helped me heal. Never would I have thought that something you've suffered with for so long, could be gone so quickly in such a simple way. Thank you so much! More...

It has been so striking under the therapy with Ben.
I am a scientist at the University of Oxford at present. I work very hard and it is not easy to balance work and life. Then, I was anxious and worried too much about my career development. I developed a binge eating disorder and suffered a brain disease after that. Simultaneously, it was a big challenge for me to gain confidence and feel comfortable when I moved from China to the UK. Unfortunately, I was struggling to keep my mental and physical health.
Finally, I looked for professional help and luckily I met Ben. With his talking therapy, my anxiety decreased significantly within two months. I always say that Ben has the magic to make me mentally positive, which is essential to keep my physical health and accelerate my career development.
I am the lucky one to meet Ben and have access to his therapy. I recommend you talk to him if you also have a difficult time.

I found Ben in a desperate moment of crisis in September 2021. I started having panic attacks at 12 and continued having background anxiety for around 8 years until this finally culminated in a terrifying anxiety attack that caused me to reach out for help. Thankfully, I found Ben, who I was able to start working with immediately on this method. It was hard work making progress at first since I was really in the throes of anxiety at the time, but the continued work on the method with Ben's guidance meant that I was able to make it out the other side. I will say that it worked because I was desperate enough to feel better that I was willing to put in the work as it isn't easy, but with Ben's help and once I had learnt the methods and adapted my thinking it was a permanent change for the better.
Shortly after my sessions with Ben ended my dad sadly died. This was a really hard time for me since I was very close to him, and I am so thankful that I had my sessions with Ben beforehand as otherwise I do not think I would have been able to cope with the grief and it would have sent me spiralling even deeper into anxiety. The sessions with Ben came at the perfect time and now, a year later I can gladly say that I am in more control of myself and my mental state than I have ever been, and this is undoubtedly thanks to Ben and this method. I feel like myself again after years of struggling with anxiety and suffering a loss of someone very dear to me. I would recommend Ben and this method to anyone suffering with anxiety who does not think there is a solution. It has worked wonders for me, and for anyone wondering about the longevity of this method, I am feeling more in control than ever over a year later.
Thanks again Ben.

Ben was incredibly encouraging and gracious to work with and I always came away from sessions feeling positive. Along with the method itself, Ben helped me to understand what was happening when I was feeling anxious and gave me tools to help me unlearn a lifetime of anxious thinking and reactions.
All this was wrapped up in a kind and gentle manner and our sessions invariably included laughter. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him as a counsellor to anyone else.

Working with Ben was extremely enlightening. Initially not understanding the process and not wanting to commit was my biggest mistake, even after the first session with Ben I could already start to see that this was right for me and the best way to get my life back on track. Ben was easy to talk to and explained matters in a such a way that I could understand and process. Helping me to develop on my own. Brilliant experience and would highly recommend. More...

Ben and this method is the way forward, I'm sure of it. It's science-based, factual and just works.
I had really bad health anxiety for a year (various causes, the Olympic games being one), but Ben showed me how to heal and heal quick. If you fully buy into the process with Ben, I'm sure it will work for you too. It just makes sense, and Ben is very clear with his delivery over the course. None of that wrist tapping stuff; this process leads to a genuine recovery, and I'm so glad I invested in it. Ben is very understanding, clear and truly wants to help; I hope you get in contact and work with Ben; you won't regret it.

P.S. Keep your head up. You might be in a tough place right now, but it is not permanent. You 100% can get fully over what's holding you down, and quickly.

Ben has been a great support with showing me the steps on how to overcome anxiety.
I went into the program with a good understanding of anxiety but had trouble understanding why I was experiencing it and not knowing what to do when I experienced panic attacks. Ben explained it in simple terminology for a better understanding so it clicks much easier so therefore in my experience the recovery time is less.
I am regaining control of my own mind and I can’t thank Ben enough.

I came across this therapy when researching online and chose to work with Ben based on his really positive reviews, in addition to it sounding like a different take on therapy to those i have tried previously and was willing to try anything. Ben put me at ease from day one, explaining how everything works and the process of the programme. He made me feel comfortable to talk about anything and it has been great to be able to check in with him throughout the course, given that he has a vast amount of knowledge on the subject. This programme has been so informative and given me a completely new outlook on anxiety and how to control it. I really do recommend this process to anyone with anxiety, I am still going through the programme and working hard towards completion but I can really feel the benefits and look forward to the future now!
