Online Therapy in Cambridge
Cambridge is a city of high achievers, but behind the academic excellence, many people are struggling with the pressure to perform. If you’re living in Cambridge and finding things difficult, online therapy offers a space where you can be honest about how you’re really feeling.
The weight of high expectations
Cambridge’s academic and professional culture can create intense pressure to succeed. Imposter syndrome, perfectionism, and burnout are incredibly common, but rarely talked about openly. The feeling that everyone around you is coping brilliantly can make your own struggles feel shameful.
Whether you’re a student, a researcher, or a professional, the demands of life in Cambridge can leave you feeling exhausted, anxious, or disconnected from the things that matter. That’s not a personal failing. It’s a natural response to an intense environment.

Confidential support, from home
Online therapy means you can access support discreetly and privately, without anyone needing to know. Sessions are by Zoom or phone, so you can talk from wherever feels safest.
I’m Harriet, a BACP-registered person-centred counsellor. I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation to start. Just a chance for us to chat and see if we’re a good fit.
If the pressure is getting to you, you don’t have to carry it alone. I’m here.
