Jemma Rollison , BACP

Jemma Rollison is a counsellor who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, career worries and depression. She helps clients work through feelings of overwhelm, panic, low motivation and uncertainty. Jemma writes plainly and listens closely to understand what matters to each person.

Her approach is integrative and client-centred. Sessions focus on what the client wants to change and on small, practical steps to feel steadier. Jemma draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thinking, attachment-based thinking to look at relationship patterns, and mindfulness to build calmness day to day.

Jemma has four years of experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She meets people where they are and works at a steady pace that suits each individual. People are encouraged to bring specific problems or broader life questions to the sessions.

She also offers support for concerns often linked with core issues, such as abandonment fears, attachment difficulties, avoidant personality patterns, blended family tensions, body image struggles, cancer-related distress, caregiver strain, chronic illness and pain, codependency and commitment worries. Practical communication skills and coping strategies are commonly taught in sessions.

Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video call, phone, live chat or messaging. To start, a short matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are scheduled according to therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect current relationships and emotional responses. It can help people understand repeated habits in close relationships and reduce reactivity when stress hits.

Client-centred counselling puts the person at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens without judgement, reflects what they hear and helps clients find their own solutions. This approach is useful for building confidence and clarity about next steps.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them in everyday life. It often includes practical exercises and short tasks between sessions to reduce anxiety and improve mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together they will try methods that suit the person and adjust as needed in ongoing conversations.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls are close to face-to-face and work well for deeper conversations. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break or commute. Live chat and text messaging allow brief check-ins or ongoing written support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or health needs, while still working through attachment, CBT and client-centred practices.
