About Jemma

Jemma Rollison is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, career uncertainty and depression. She works with clients who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or struggling to make decisions. Jemma speaks plainly and shares the room with clients as they sort through what matters most to them.

Her sessions are collaborative. She treats the person in front of her as the expert on their life and focuses on understanding how past experiences shape present responses. That practical stance helps people spot patterns and try different ways of coping.

Jemma draws on a mix of approaches including attachment-based ideas, cognitive behavioural techniques and client-centred listening. She uses mindfulness exercises and, where relevant, Jungian perspectives to explore meaning and inner patterns. These methods are used to help manage anxiety, process traumatic memories, or rebuild a sense of direction after a life change.

With four years of clinical experience and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), she aims for straightforward, empathetic work. Sessions focus on concrete steps as well as exploring feelings, so clients leave with tools they can use between appointments.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Jemma uses evidence-informed approaches online

Jemma blends attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioural techniques in her work. Attachment-based approaches look at how early relationships shape how people connect and cope, which can help with relationship worries and fears about abandonment. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Jemma works together with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That might mean using mindfulness exercises for stress, CBT tools for anxiety, or exploring attachment patterns to improve relationships; choices are discussed and adjusted as the work progresses.

The biography does not list which online formats are offered, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow more flexible scheduling. It can also allow shorter check-ins when people need quick support or phone-based conversations when video is not convenient.
