PSYCHOLOGIST

jemma

Dressed in pink and armed with a coffee, Jemma has been referred to as The Elle Woods of Psychology—but in the words of one of her clients “don’t let the pink fool you”.

She’s on a mission to help people redefine success, building it from the inside out, with the help of evidence-based tools grounded in positive and coaching psychology. Whether she’s myth-busting pop psychology nonsense, working to legitimise the wild west of the coaching industry, or deep in ‘me’-search on burnout after her own quarter life crisis, Jemma is bridging the gap between research and practice.

What Jemma is currently up to:

  • Success coaching at The Coaching Practice
  • Researching entrepreneurial burnout at UEL
  • Building the community at CoachingPsychology.co
  • Utilising positive psychology with employees at Psy&Co
  • Hosting coffee meet-ups for local entrepreneurs in Devon
  • Co-editing PsyPAG at the British Psychological Society

And probably some other side-quests since this list was written…

coachingpsychology.co

CoachingPsychology.co is the exact thing Jemma wished existed, so she created it. Created with coaches, psychologists and practitioners in mind, the website is currently in its first stage of launching.

After delivering a talk at the BPS Careers Festival in 2024, Jemma was inundated with students looking for somewhere they could go to learn more about coaching psychology, connect with others with similar interests and find mentors to support them on their careers into this industry that so few are talking about. This space didn't exist.

With the goal of being a one-stop-shop for the coaching psychology world, Jemma's vision is to provide resources, community, education and more to the rapidly growing coaching psychology world.

While there is a big vision for the site and community, stage one of the launch is a monthly newsletter full of the latest journal articles, news in the coaching industry, dates of events, and all other not-to-be-missed information, without the fluff!
