Complaints Procedure

How to raise a concern and what happens next

Last updated: May 2026

At Cambium Therapies, we are committed to providing a safe, ethical and professional service. If you are unhappy with any aspect of the service you have received, we encourage you to raise your concern so that we can address it promptly and fairly.

All complaints are taken seriously and handled with confidentiality and respect. Making a complaint will not affect your right to continue receiving counselling if you choose to do so.

How to Raise a Complaint

1

Contact Us Directly

In the first instance, please raise your concern with Jake Barry directly by email at hello@cambium-therapies.co.uk. Please describe the nature of your concern, when it occurred, and what outcome you are seeking.

We aim to acknowledge all complaints within 3 working days and provide a full written response within 28 days.

Escalate to the NCPS

If your complaint is not resolved to your satisfaction at Step 1, or if your complaint relates to a serious ethical or professional matter, you may escalate your complaint to the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) — our professional membership and regulatory body.

Jake Barry is a registered member of the NCPS (Membership No. NCS23-03513) and is bound by the NCPS Code of Ethics. The NCPS has a formal complaints process and the power to investigate and apply sanctions where appropriate.
