About Jemima
Jemima Pearson works with people who are struggling with sleep and a wide range of emotional or relationship difficulties. She helps clients who feel stuck in repeating patterns, who are coping with life changes, or who want to rebuild a sense of self. Jemima writes simply and directly in sessions so people can focus on practical change rather than jargon.
Jemima is BACP, which means she is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She draws on several different approaches to shape sessions around each person’s needs. Sessions aim to be collaborative and focused on the issues that matter most to the client in the moment.
Her way of working includes talking about how past experiences affect current thoughts, emotions and behaviours. She uses techniques from cognitive behavioural thinking to challenge unhelpful patterns, alongside client-centred listening to make space for the person’s own perspective. Attachment-based ideas help when relationships and intimacy are central concerns.
Parents reading this will find short, clear reflections rather than complex theory. Jemima also offers support for stress, anxiety, depression, addiction issues, grief and eating and sleeping difficulties among other concerns. She recognises the impact of long-term illness, chronic pain and multicultural issues on wellbeing.
With four years’ experience, Jemima balances practical tools with curious, respectful listening. People are encouraged to work at their own pace and to set goals that fit their day-to-day life. To begin, readers are invited to use the site’s Start Therapy process to match and schedule a first session.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting led by them, then to choose actions that match their values. It can be helpful for anxiety, stress and sleep problems where worry keeps people awake. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together and gives simple exercises to change unhelpful patterns, often useful for mood, worry and sleep habits. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current ways of connecting, which can help when intimacy or relationship patterns affect rest and emotional safety.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, routines and preferences and then suggest ways to proceed. Decisions about techniques and pacing are made together so the plan fits the person rather than following a fixed template.
Please confirm the specific online session formats available before booking as they are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing more flexible scheduling. They also let people use short check-ins or longer sessions depending on what suits a workday or family routine, and can be adjusted if someone prefers less time on camera or a different rhythm of contact.
