Founder and Lead Therapist

Joe Carter. Integrative Counsellor. MBACP. Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
With 25 years of experience, I began my therapeutic practice in 2001 with one of the UK's leading rehabilitation services of the time; Focus12. Based in Bury St Edmunds, I developed my specialism in 1 to 1 counselling, group therapy facilitation, art therapy, guided meditation and therapeutic workshops.
Then to Newmarket and The Jockey Club in 2006. I worked with individuals and governing bodies for 10 years, championing a culture of recovery and support in British Horseracing. Harnessing the experience of the industry's workforce, we conceived and developed Thoroughpeutics >; a bespoke programme of equine assisted therapy for racing's people.
I next became a member of the Cambridge based JHD Counselling and Tutoring Team in 2017. This practising and teaching organisation provides counselling to Cambridge University Colleges, supporting a unique community of people studying at the highest level of world academics.
Alongside this role in another university city, I practiced as a member of Oxford CBT, bringing the model of ACT [Acceptance Commitment Therapy] to this established clinical team.
Then in 2019, I began work with the prominent Cambridge charity; Wintercomfort for the homeless. Steered by people accessing support from the charity, we developed a tailored and flexible approach to talking therapy.
Now part of the therapeutic community in the North of Ireland, working alongside other partners, this is my own practice;
The Bulb Booth.

I didn't ever, ever feel that I was subject to a process that was predetermined. I felt that my work with Joe was responsive entirely to me and my level of engagement with our work, yet grounded in tried and tested experience, knowledge and so very much wisdom.
