Elaine Barry Counselling

Welcome

Hi, I’m Elaine, a qualified Counsellor based in Cambridge offering online, telephone or face-to-face counselling sessions to adults and young people.

I offer support to people facing a wide range of emotional and personal difficulties – including anxiety, depression, trauma, loss, and relationship or work-related stress.

I have particular experience supporting adults and older young people who have:

  • Experienced loss or bereavement
  • Been adopted or fostered, or are navigating issues around identity and belonging
  • Struggled with mental health difficulties, including feelings of anxiety, low mood, or emotional overwhelm

Whatever brings you to counselling, I offer a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space where you can talk openly and begin to make sense of your thoughts and feelings. Together, we can look at the changes you may want to make, helping you feel more in control, find greater understanding, or move towards acceptance and self-compassion.

How I Can Help You

Life can be challenging at times, and it’s not always easy to make sense of how we feel or find a way forward. You may be struggling with low self-esteem, finding it hard to set boundaries, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. Perhaps you’re coping with big life changes, loss, or simply a sense that something isn’t right, even if you can’t quite put your finger on why.

Whether you’re seeking to understand the past, make changes in the present, or build resilience for the future, I can help you work towards greater clarity, confidence, and self-acceptance.
