Jemima Pearson, BACP

Jemima Pearson is a counsellor who helps people feeling stuck, overwhelmed or uncertain about their next steps. She works with stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem and life changes. People also come to her for help with grief, addiction issues and concerns about eating or sleeping.

Jemima is a BACP counsellor. She draws on several approaches to shape sessions around each person’s needs. In practice this means clear conversations about thoughts, habits and how day-to-day choices affect mood and coping.

Her style is collaborative and direct. Sessions look at how past relationships and attachment patterns influence current behaviour. Work may include noticing unhelpful thinking, trying small behavioural changes, and experimenting with new ways of relating to others and oneself.

Jemima has four years' experience working with a broad range of issues, including chronic health concerns, trauma and mood difficulties. She pays attention to practical problems - such as money stress, work pressures and isolation - as well as emotional patterns that keep people stuck.

She offers a calm, non-judgemental space and aims to help people build clearer intentions and everyday habits that support their goals. If you want to talk about what feels hard right now she invites you to start with a short matching questionnaire and an initial scheduling step.

How Jemima’s approaches translate to online work

Jemima uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside client-centred ways of working. ACT helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions and ways of relating, which can help with intimacy and trust issues. Client-centred work puts the person’s experience at the heart of the session and aims to create a supportive, non-judgemental space.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with you about your goals, preferences and what feels useful, then adapt methods as therapy progresses. This means trying practical exercises or gentle reflection until a good fit emerges.

The original profile does not specify which remote session formats are offered, so please confirm options before booking. Many people find online work easier to fit into a busy week, for example by avoiding travel time, fitting a shorter check-in around work, or choosing audio-only when bandwidth is limited. Registered or accredited professionals often use remote sessions to help therapy sit alongside everyday life rather than replace it.
