About Jean
Jean Fletcher is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She has worked full time in a charity setting and now sees clients in private practice. She helps people with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and issues around self-esteem and motivation.
She uses everyday conversation and practical steps rather than technical language. Sessions are aimed at making sense of what is happening at home and reducing daily strain. Jean listens for patterns in thoughts, feelings and behaviour and looks for small, steady changes that fit into busy lives.
Her work draws on several established approaches, including cognitive behavioural ideas, acceptance and commitment perspectives, attachment-focused thinking and client-centred conversation. She also uses elements from dialectical behaviour methods when someone needs help with intense emotions or strong reactions.
Jean has supported people with parenting challenges, relationship tensions, intimacy-related worries, and the long-term effects of abandonment or foster care. She also has experience with ADHD, neurodiversity such as autism and Asperger syndrome, chronic illness and caregiver stress, and issues around body image and eating.
She aims to be practical and clear about what happens in sessions. If you are thinking about reaching out, the first step is to complete the short matching questionnaire and book an initial appointment. The process is straightforward and designed for people managing home and work life.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful beliefs and choose actions that matter to them. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, low motivation and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical exercises to reduce worry and improve sleep and mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to agree which methods to try first, based on the issues, goals and what feels manageable. That choice can change over time as progress is seen or new priorities emerge.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the exact options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises for remote sessions, for example sharing worksheets by message or using video to work through behavioural tasks.
