Service

Gemma Autumn provides individual psychotherapy sessions for adults and adolescents, offered online, in person in London (Harley Street and Vauxhall) or outdoors in nature. The practice includes integrative counselling that blends talking therapy, creative techniques (e.g. sand tray, art), body awareness work, visualisation, neuro-linguistic programming, EFT tapping and breathwork, tailored to each person’s needs. Areas of focus include emotional challenges such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, grief, trauma, stress and burnout, relationship and intimacy issues, attachment and separation issues, life transitions, cultural/spiritual disconnection, and processing of psychedelic experiences. Sessions are typically 50 minutes long and an initial meeting is suggested to explore fit and goals.

Safety

Gemma Autumn holds professional qualifications including a Certificate and Postgraduate Diploma in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy and is accredited by a recognised professional body (British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy), ensuring practice in line with recognised ethical standards. Gemma Autumn accepts certain health insurance plans and works within established professional frameworks to maintain confidentiality, professional boundaries and a therapeutic environment adapted to each client’s readiness and safety.

Care pathway

A prospective client begins by arranging an initial conversation to discuss needs, history and goals and to determine whether the therapeutic approach is suitable. After that, regular sessions are scheduled (in person, online or outdoors) according to client preference and therapeutic plan. For clients seeking support with expanded-state experiences, preparation and integration work are incorporated into the therapy process, with interventions and pacing tailored individually.
