About Gemma
Gemma Pyatt-Lonczyk is a counsellor who uses an integrative approach to support people through stress, anxiety, grief and major life changes. She focuses on helping people understand themselves better and on building a helpful therapeutic relationship. Gemma values a non-judgemental atmosphere where clients can feel heard and supported. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
Gemma blends different therapeutic ideas so sessions can be tailored to what a person needs. She offers fresh perspectives to help people see their situation in a new way and to identify practical next steps. This flexible way of working means conversations can cover current struggles, past events, and how those things connect.
Her background includes several years working in a hospice setting. There she provided palliative care counselling, anticipatory grief support, and bereavement help. That experience informs work with people facing loss, serious illness in themselves or others, and complex emotions that follow major life events.
Gemma aims to help people who feel lost, overwhelmed, or unsure about how to cope. She pays attention to how people make sense of relationships and life changes, and to patterns such as attachment or control issues. Practical support can include talking through communication problems, commitment worries, and ways to manage persistent stress.
She reflects regularly on her practice and pursues ongoing professional development. This keeps her approach responsive and grounded in current practice and helps her tune support to each person’s needs.
Approaches that guide online counselling
Gemma practises an integrative way of working that draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to suit the person in front of her. One approach she uses emphasises talking through current patterns and relationships to understand recurring problems; this can help with anxiety, relationship difficulties and communication issues. Another strand focuses on working with grief and loss, offering space to name emotions, process anticipatory grief and plan practical coping steps when faced with serious illness or bereavement.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Gemma will discuss options with each person and adapt her methods to fit their goals and preferences. Decisions about techniques are collaborative and may change as needs evolve.
Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions around work and family commitments and avoiding travel time. Online sessions can make shorter check-ins or regular weekly meetings simpler to keep.
