About Benjamin
Benjamin Ng is a psychotherapist with a Master’s degree and ten years of experience. He helps people who feel stuck in their relationships, their sense of self, or the stories they carry. He works with issues like anxiety, addiction, grief, low self-worth and questions about identity.
His approach combines warmth with straightforward questions when needed. Benjamin draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at how past patterns shape the present. He also uses family systems thinking to map how relationships and roles influence behaviour.
Background and approach
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps him work with values and actions when feelings are overwhelming. Sessions are intended to be thoughtful and practical. Benjamin will name patterns that keep repeating and then help you try different ways of responding.
He won’t rush you, but he will be engaged and direct when a clear issue needs attention. He pays careful attention to how ethnicity, gender identity, sexuality and culture shape a person’s experience. That perspective is woven into the work rather than treated as an add-on.
The aim is to understand the wider pressures on someone, not just individual symptoms. If you prefer a counsellor who listens closely and asks real questions, Benjamin offers a straightforward style. He invites people to explore what helps now, rather than only digging into the past.

How Benjamin’s approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on what matters to them. Online ACT sessions encourage small experiments and values-led actions that can be tried between appointments.Psychodynamic work looks at recurring patterns and where they may have come from. In remote sessions this often means talking through relationship themes and noticing repeated reactions in daily life.
Mindfulness therapy brings attention to the present moment and can reduce reactivity. Simple breathing and attention exercises are taught and practised during sessions to help with anxiety and stress.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with you about your goals and try methods that suit your needs and preferences. Over a few sessions you and the therapist can adjust the focus or mix approaches if that helps.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, quick reflections, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
