About Jemima
Jemima Pearson offers short, practical therapy for people feeling stuck, anxious, or overwhelmed by life changes. She meets people where they are and helps them untangle patterns that cause stress, low mood, relationship strain or problems with sleep and eating. Sessions are meant to be straightforward and focused on what matters now for each person.
Jemima is registered with BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has four years' experience and draws on several approaches to shape sessions around a person's needs.
Background and approach
That can mean clarifying values and choices, developing new ways to manage distress, or looking at how early attachment shapes relationships today. Her style is person-centred and collaborative. People can expect a respectful, non-judgemental conversation where their experience is heard.
Practical strategies may be offered alongside reflective work to help people cope between sessions. Jemima also works with longer-standing issues such as grief, trauma and addiction, and with concerns like body image, chronic illness, or feeling isolated. She aims to help people find clearer direction, greater self-understanding, and more workable routines in daily life.
Sessions are available to people in the United Kingdom and internationally. Appointments can be arranged by following the site's start process and completing a short matching questionnaire to find a suitable time.

Online support
How different approaches work online
Existential therapy helps people consider life choices, meaning and personal values. Online sessions using this approach often focus on big questions about purpose, responsibility and how someone wants to live, which can help when facing major life changes or feelings of emptiness. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches practical skills to notice thoughts and feelings without being overwhelmed by them. It supports people to take small, values-based actions even when emotions are difficult, and suits issues like anxiety, low mood and stress. Jemima treats finding the right approach as part of the work together. She will discuss options and adapt sessions based on a person's goals and preferences. That collaborative process makes it easier to test what helps and change direction if something is not working. Online therapy offers flexibility for different needs. Video calls let people work face to face when they want deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit short check-ins, brief coaching, or regular support between longer sessions. Many people find remote sessions make it simpler to fit therapy into busy lives, access support from different locations, and maintain steady progress with practical strategies and reflective work.We will earn a commission if you sign up through our link, at no cost to you.
