About Gemma Morley
Known for a warm and non-judgmental manner, Gemma prioritises an authentic therapeutic relationship where clients can feel heard and understood. Her practice focuses on creating a space in which individuals can explore emotions and experiences at their own pace, while the therapist adapts methods to meet each person’s needs. As an integrative practitioner she draws on a range of interventions rather than relying on a single model, tailoring sessions to the client’s goals and preferences.
Gemma’s creative background influences her work and she often offers alternative ways to access feelings when words alone are difficult. Creative options may include painting, drawing, sand trays, picture cards, role play, dolls, pebbles and creative writing, always guided by what feels most helpful to the client. She also uses talk-based techniques and mindfulness practices when appropriate, with the client leading the direction of therapy and the therapist offering support and different pathways to understanding.

Client-Centered and Creative Therapy Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on offering a genuine, empathic relationship in which the therapist listens without judgement and supports the client to explore their own thoughts and feelings. This approach is helpful for people dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem and major life transitions.Alongside a person-centered foundation, Gemma uses an integrative set of creative interventions when appropriate. These creative methods - such as art, sand trays, picture work, role play and creative writing - provide alternative ways to access emotions and images that can be hard to put into words, and can complement talk-based work for a range of issues including attachment, body image and isolation.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is treated as a collaborative process. Gemma works with each person to identify the combination of methods that best fits their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the way of working over time as the client’s priorities evolve.
Online sessions - by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging - offer practical flexibility, making it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to access registered professionals from different locations within the United Kingdom. Those options can help sustain continuity of care and make it simpler to try different ways of working with a therapist.
