About Jean

Jean Fletcher is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) registration. She began her career in a charity setting and has since moved into private practice, building four years of professional experience supporting people through difficult times.

She focuses on everyday problems like stress and anxiety, grief and loss, and relationship and intimacy concerns. She also helps people facing trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, motivation struggles and issues around sleep and eating. Jean lists ADHD, bipolar and depression among areas she addresses, alongside broader life changes such as career shifts and caregiving strain.

Jean uses a mix of evidence-based approaches such as acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy and attachment-based work. She adopts a client-centred stance, which means sessions are shaped around each person and their goals rather than a fixed template. Conversations are practical and grounded, aimed at finding ways to make small changes that add up.

Her style is warm and direct. She aims to treat people with respect, sensitivity and compassion. Jean says she will tailor the dialogue and plan to the individual’s needs, and she is trauma informed in her practice.

Jean accepts clients from outside the UK and holds sessions in English. To begin, people are asked to use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability. The service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then commit to actions that match their personal values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and motivation struggles. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns from early relationships and how these affect current connections; it can help with intimacy issues, abandonment concerns and attachment difficulties. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression and unhelpful thinking.

Finding the right approach is often part of the work. Jean will discuss these methods with each person and together they will decide which ideas feel most useful. She frames the process as collaborative, adjusting the plan as needs and goals become clearer.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. For some people, sessions that do not require video may be a simpler way to stay in touch when bandwidth is limited or a quieter environment is easier to manage. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt materials and exercises used in face-to-face work for remote sessions, keeping progress focused on the client’s goals.

Before you get in touch

Therapists listed here offer talking therapy online. A profile is not a diagnosis of you or of anyone in your life, and no therapist can promise how a relationship will turn out.

If you are in danger, or someone is hurting or threatening you, contact emergency services or a domestic-abuse helpline. The numbers are at the foot of this page.
