About Jemima

Jemima Pearson is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and self‑esteem struggles, and life changes. She also supports people facing grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, intimacy concerns and difficulties with eating or sleeping.

Her practice focuses on helping clients notice patterns that keep them stuck. Sessions are practical and conversational. Jemima aims to help people name hard emotions and understand how past experiences affect current reactions.

She uses Emotionally‑Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment‑Based and Client‑Centred approaches. That lets her work with feelings, thoughts and the ways people relate to themselves and others. She explains approaches plainly and adapts methods to what feels most helpful in session.

Jemima draws on her BACP registration when planning therapy and keeps sessions collaborative. She works with issues including body image, chronic illness and pain, communication problems, addiction, guilt and shame, loneliness, life purpose and multicultural concerns.

People interested in online work can complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange a first session. Costs vary by location and are managed through a cancellable subscription model.

How her approaches translate to online work

Emotionally‑Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and naming emotional responses and interaction patterns. It can help when feelings are intense, confusing or hard to express and when relationship patterns keep repeating. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that reflect their values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, low mood and life changes. Attachment‑Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current ways of relating and feeling, and can help with trust, closeness and repeated relational difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jemima will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and collaborate to decide which methods to use. That way the plan grows from what feels most helpful rather than from a fixed template.

The original profile does not specify session formats, so please confirm the current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life, for example by avoiding travel time, enabling shorter check‑in appointments, or allowing work‑day breaks to be used for a session. Registered or accredited professionals can deliver these benefits while working with the approaches noted above.
