About Jemima
Jemima Pearson is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and relationship problems. She works with individuals dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, addiction, and life changes. Her style is grounded and practical, aimed at helping people make small, manageable steps forward.
She trained and practices as a BACP counsellor, and she brings four years of experience to each session. Jemima combines several approaches so the work fits the person in front of her.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and begin by looking at what matters most to the client now. Jemima often looks at how past experiences affect present emotions and behaviour. She helps people notice patterns that keep them stuck and then tries new ways of responding.
That can mean learning practical skills from cognitive behavioural work or paying attention to feelings and attachment needs. Therapy with her is paced to the individual. Some people prefer structured exercises and clear goals.
Others want reflective conversation and space to make sense of painful memories. Jemima adjusts her approach to match those preferences and the issues being brought to the room. Her additional interests include supporting people with body image concerns, chronic illness, autism and multicultural issues.
Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients for online work. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

How Jemima's Approaches Translate to Online Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, then commit to actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress and issues with motivation. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of connecting and reacting; it helps when relationship patterns and intimacy problems are causing distress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jemima discusses options with each person and decides together what to try first. Sessions may combine ACT skills, attachment-focused conversation or client-centred listening depending on the goals and what feels most helpful.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls are close to face-to-face sessions and suit people who want visual connection. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be simpler to fit into a busy day. Live chat or text-based messaging work for shorter check-ins, journalling between sessions or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent alongside work, care duties or travel.
