Jemma Dennis Profile
Life and relationships are not easy to navigate if you’re or going through difficult times, things can feel overwhelming. I understand how difficulties can cause you to lose your sense of control and overall wellbeing.
About me
Psychotherapy can be a life-changing experience
People start therapy for many different reasons.
You may feel dissatisfied or distressed, want to explore the past, process difficult life events, achieve new goals or just learn more about yourself.
Creating a supportive environment
To facilitate self-awareness, I place particular attention on developing a trusting, safe and collaborative relationship. In this supportive environment with trust, we will work as a team to develop a shared understanding of your difficulties and identify how these difficulties affect your thoughts, beliefs, behaviours, feelings and daily functioning.
Integrative Therapy
My style of practice is Integrative, this means I draw from different psychological modalities, including psychodynamic, existential and creatively incorporate the transpersonal use of visualisations and dream work.
Tailoring therapy to the individual’s needs
Ultimately, my main focus is you, and for this reason, I tailor the type of therapy to the individuals’ needs and presenting issues.
I am an experienced psychotherapist and relationship therapist working with individuals, couples, and families. I offer face-to-face sessions, as well as offering sessions online via Zoom.
I look forward to working with you

Testimonials
“Jemma Dennis is the most incredible therapist - I can't recommend her more highly. Over the past 18 months, she has supported me through an incredibly difficult period of my life with compassion, patience, and deep insight. What stood out most was her ability to really listen — not just to what I was saying, but to what I was struggling to put into words. She helped me untangle complex emotions, rebuild my confidence, and gradually find a sense of calm and stability again. Therapy with her was not about quick fixes, but about understanding, growth, and learning how to feel grounded and at peace with myself. I now feel stronger, more self-aware, and far more at ease than I did when I first started. I am deeply grateful for her support and would wholeheartedly recommend Jemma to anyone looking for a thoughtful, skilled, and genuinely caring therapist. Thank you Jemma!”
“I cannot recommend Jemma enough. Made me feel very comfortable from the beginning of my journey and helped me so so much. Every week was so nice, and pleasant to speak about anything I was dealing with or not. Jemma made it so easy to speak about my feelings, and understood. She is a great person and even better therapist with the knowledge, skills and everything else to help me! I cannot thank her enough for how much she has helped me on my journey.'”
“It's been so lovely working with Jemma because I was very hesitant with starting but she created a safe environment to allow me to open up & help navigate through certain tricky stages of my life. I've learnt more about myself than I ever have and genuinely in a better place."”
Frequently asked questions
What happens in Psychotherapy?
Psychotherapy will provide you with the space to talk and reflect, to help you explore and understand your feelings, thoughts and behaviours, so that you can free yourself from emotional blocks and be able to live a more fulfilling life.
It will involve you speaking about your current and past problems, and I will be listening in a particularly empathic and skilled way. I will be looking for and carefully highlighting previously uncovered patterns, meanings, emotions, defences and beliefs. The understanding of which will help you see yourself more clearly and thus clear the pathway to change. As the therapy progresses you will gain a better understanding of and compassion for why you live as you do, and you will observe when and where your patterns are being enacted. Over time as your feelings and confidence start to change through the process of psychotherapy, you will begin to feel secure enough to start co-formulating and experimenting with new and more satisfying ways to be; reducing your symptoms and improving your relationship with yourself and others.
