About Jemima
Jemima Pearson helps people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to turn. She works with those coping with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, addictions and life changes. She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma, relationship struggles and intimacy-related concerns.
Jemima is BACP, which means she is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Jemima uses a mix of recognised approaches to match what each person needs.
Background and approach
She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to look at thought and behaviour patterns. She brings in attachment-focused ways of thinking to understand how early relationships shape current connections. She also uses client-centred principles so the person’s experience guides the pace and direction of therapy.
Sessions are collaborative and practical. Jemima will help you notice patterns, try small changes and reflect on what helps. Conversations explore how past events influence present feelings, while also focusing on actions that move you forward.
Her background combines four years of clinical work with continual learning in different therapeutic models. That range allows flexibility when someone needs a structured plan or a gentler, listening-led space. The mix aims to be down-to-earth and usable in daily life.
Jemima works from the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and an initial appointment is scheduled through the Start Therapy button on the site.

How Jemima works online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape patterns in current connections and emotional responses. It can be useful for people who notice repeating relationship difficulties or who struggle with trust and closeness.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jemima will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best, combining techniques where useful and adjusting as goals change. This shared process means the plan can respond to your needs and preferences.
Online sessions can make fitting therapy into a busy life easier, for example by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins around work. Specific session formats are not listed here, so please confirm the available options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can offer effective therapeutic work remotely, and Jemima will focus on practical tools and discussions that transfer into your daily routines.
