About Jemima
Jemima Pearson is a counsellor who helps people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or unsure how to move forward. She works with individuals facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, low self-esteem and depression. Sessions are straightforward and practical, aimed at finding small steps that fit daily life.
Jemima draws on a mix of approaches to match what each person needs. She uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people live by their values even when emotions are difficult.
Background and approach
She also uses Attachment-Based and Emotionally-Focused ideas to look at how early connections affect current relationships. Her practice emphasises a warm, person-centred way of working. That means listening closely, offering empathy and helping people make choices that feel right for them.
Sessions move at a pace set by the client, with practical tools introduced when useful. Jemima has four years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation. She works with a wide range of concerns including grief, addiction, trauma, body image and chronic illness.
She also supports people dealing with career stress, money worries and life purpose questions. Sessions are offered in English and are available to clients in the United Kingdom and internationally. The focus is on making therapy relevant and manageable, so people can begin to notice change between sessions.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what has or has not helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and check in regularly to adjust the plan as needed.
Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from different locations, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging suit quick check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, family or health commitments and to keep momentum between meetings.
