Catriona Ball

I have some availability for sessions during the day.  Unfortunately I have no availability for evening sessions.

Counselling can be beneficial to a huge range of issues, both mental health related and life stresses. Asking for help can be difficult for lots of reasons, but it is not selfish to wish to understand yourself better and in doing so, to start to make sense of and put right the difficulties in your life.

As a humanistic integrative counsellor, I have a range of tools I can use depending on the person and situation but the core of my practice is person centred – this means that the relationship between us is key. I will welcome you into a safe, non-judgemental space and give you time to explore the issues you bring.

I studied for my counselling diploma later in life after my own experience of counselling helped me to learn who I was and gain insight into why I felt the way I did.

I offer therapy to people aged 18 and upwards, face to face in my consulting room in Cambridge and online, by arrangement.  My preference is to work face to face as I feel it usually leads to a better relationship, but there may be people for whom this will not work. Please speak to me if you would like to work online or in a mixture of face to face and online.

I can work with people both long-term or short term, depending on the needs of the client.

My therapy room is on the ground floor and has level access (apart from the door threshold) but the doorways and corridor are quite narrow due to space constraints.  Please do contact me if you need further information.

I charge £50 for each session which lasts for 50 minutes.

I offer a free intial online meeting of 10-15 minutes to get to know each other a bit and decide if we would work well together.

If you then decided to come for counselling with me, our first paid session will involve some admin and talking through the contract at the start of the session.  This session will be 50 minutes long, as will all subsequent sessions.
