Jacqui Pearse

I'm an integrative therapist based in central Bath, offering short or long term counselling, psychotherapy and CBT to individuals (aged 16+) and couples.

During the coronavirus pandemic, I'm offering online sessions via Zoom instead of the usual 'in person' sessions until further notice.  I also have a number of concessionary fee places for individuals whose income has been affected.  

I have experience of working with a wide range of issues, including depression, anxiety, panic attacks, OCD, eating disorders, loss/bereavement, trauma and so on. I have particular interests in working with relationship difficulties; issues with identity or sense of self (including relating to neurodiversity/autism spectrum); eating disorders; and the long-term effects of emotional abuse, neglect or trauma in childhood.

Very often, though, people come to therapy with a general sense that life isn't quite right, rather than a specific issue: perhaps you might be feeling a bit empty or lost, or generally overwhelmed by the demands of your life. I provide a warm and supportive environment in which we can explore whatever is concerning you, and help you identify new perspectives and possibilities.

In addition to my private practice, I have experience of working in a variety of therapy and psychology services, including:  a NHS secondary mental health service and specialist eating disorder unit; a hospital pain clinic; an occupational health service and a university counselling service.
