Gabriel (Gabor) Bene , BACP

Gabriel (Gabor) Bene is an integrative therapist who combines evidence-informed methods with a compassionate, client-focused stance. With six years of clinical experience, he supports people facing a wide range of difficulties, including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, anger, compassion fatigue, addictions, and concerns related to identity, intimacy, eating, sleep, parenting, and career. He also works with neurodiversity, attachment issues, adoption and foster care matters, aging and caregiver stress, and other complex presentations.

He is an accredited member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP), the UK professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists. He holds a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and a Master's degree in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - qualifications that reflect formal training in psychological theory and in CBT techniques. These foundations inform a practical, goal-oriented style that values empathy and genuine human connection.

Gabriel integrates approaches such as attachment-based work, client-centered practice, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to tailor care to each person's needs. He has experience supporting survivors of trauma and those coping with life transitions, low self-esteem, bipolar disorder, ADHD, grief, and family or relationship conflict. He offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging and accepts international clients, aiming to make therapy accessible and responsive to individual circumstances.

Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Work

Gabriel draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy to guide remote work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaching practical skills to manage symptoms such as anxiety, low mood, or sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relational patterns shape current relationships and emotional responses, helping with intimacy issues, abandonment concerns, and trauma-related difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and the client’s own goals, creating conditions for self-directed growth and improved self-esteem.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Gabriel works collaboratively to understand each person’s needs, preferences, and goals, and adapts methods over time so the work feels relevant and manageable.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving practical flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life changes, to access therapeutic support from different locations, and to choose the format that best suits the issue being addressed. Licensed professionals and therapists can apply these methods effectively in remote settings to support progress and resilience.
