Jemma Rollison

Jemma Rollison is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of clinical experience. She works with people who feel stuck after life changes, and those managing stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, career doubt or depression. Her approach is practical and down to earth, aimed at helping clients talk through what matters next and to make realistic steps forward.

Jemma uses a mix of approaches to fit the person in front of her rather than a single method. Sessions involve talking, reflecting on patterns, and trying small changes between meetings. She pays particular attention to attachment and relationship patterns that affect choices, closeness and trust.

She draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and to try new ways of responding to stress and anxiety. Mindfulness-based ideas are used to develop awareness and to reduce reactivity in difficult moments. Jungian ideas inform exploration of deeper personal themes when people want that kind of work.

People often come with practical problems such as communication difficulties, commitment concerns, blended family issues, or the effect of chronic illness and caregiving stress. Jemma also addresses abandonment fears, avoidant and dependent personality patterns, codependency, body image and the impact of cancer or other major health challenges.

Her sessions are conversational and aim to help people make choices that fit their life. She asks about goals and offers exercises to try between sessions when that seems useful. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session through the site.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Attachment-based work looks at how early and current relationship patterns shape feelings and behaviour. In online sessions this helps when someone wants to understand why they repeat certain patterns in relationships or why they feel afraid of closeness.

Cognitive behavioural therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviours. It suits people dealing with anxiety, stress or low mood who want practical steps and exercises to try between meetings.

Mindfulness practice teaches simple ways to notice thoughts and bodily reactions without getting swept up by them. That can be useful for reducing reactivity and building steady routines during stressful periods.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods, and decide together which combination feels most helpful for the client’s needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process rather than a preset path.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can be easier to fit into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Different formats also make it possible to choose quieter surroundings, avoid being on camera, or use a phone when bandwidth is limited, depending on personal preference.
