About Jemma Johnson
Jemma works with a wide range of concerns including ADHD, autism, eating and parenting challenges, addictions, depression, and the unique pressures faced by LGBTQ people. Their approach emphasizes collaboration and practical growth, helping clients unmask and rebuild a life that feels authentic while attending to patterns like abandonment, attachment issues, codependency, and body image concerns.
Sessions with Jemma are intentionally adaptable - from walking conversations in nature to body-doubling while clients work on household tasks, to mapping cognitive patterns to reduce overwhelm. This practical variety reflects their belief that therapy should fit how a person lives, learns, and processes the world rather than forcing clients into a single format.
Jemma aims to create relaxed, steady, and goal-focused spaces where progress happens one manageable step at a time. They accept new clients in Australia and offer multiple session formats to suit different needs and lifestyles.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Jemma uses several evidence-informed approaches to tailor therapy to each person's needs. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns - it helps with issues like abandonment, attachment difficulties, and relationship struggles by working to build safer, more secure ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy places the client at the heart of the process - it focuses on meeting people with empathy and acceptance so they can discover their own goals and strengths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches practical techniques to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and break cycles of avoidance.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey and Jemma treats that choice as a collaborative process. They work with clients to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adapting methods over time so therapy stays relevant and effective.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to maximize flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, maintain continuity during transitions, and access licensed professionals from a range of locations within Australia.
