About Jemima
Jemima Pearson welcomes people who feel stuck, anxious, low or unsure about their next steps. She offers calm, practical conversations so clients can name what matters and start making changes. Sessions aim to be straightforward and focused on everyday problems and relationships.
Jemima works from a range of approaches and brings a relational focus to therapy. She pays attention to patterns that repeat in people’s lives and how early bonds shape current feelings and behaviour.
Background and approach
Meetings are collaborative and paced to each person's needs rather than following a fixed script. She is registered with the BACP, which means she works within recognised professional standards. Over four years she has supported people with stress, anxiety, depression and life transitions, as well as concerns around addiction, grief and trauma.
Jemima also helps clients who want support with self-esteem, career questions, body image and communication problems. Her practice includes attention to attachment issues and neurodiversity such as autism and Asperger syndrome, plus long-term conditions like chronic pain and illness. She also addresses financial worries, isolation, control issues and intimacy-related difficulties.
In sessions she combines practical tools with careful listening. That might mean learning simpler ways to manage difficult thoughts, trying different ways to approach relationships, or using reflective exercises to understand how past experiences shape today. The aim is to leave with usable steps and clearer thinking about next moves.

Online support
How Jemima’s approaches work in online therapy
Jemima draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to shape her online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them, and it focuses on actions that match personal values. It can help with anxiety, depression and problems that come from avoidance.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence how people connect and respond now. This approach is useful for people struggling with trust, intimacy or repeated relationship patterns. Both approaches are delivered in a collaborative, person-centred way so the client’s goals guide the work.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jemima discusses options with each person and adapts methods to fit goals, preferences and practical needs. The work is joint - she offers suggestions and tools, and clients decide what fits best.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video lets you use visual cues and a fuller conversation. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or times when typing feels more comfortable. These options aim to make therapy flexible and accessible while keeping the focus on progress and practical next steps.
