About Jean

Jean Fletcher is a counsellor with four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation and has worked in a charity setting before moving into independent practice. Jean focuses on supporting people through stress, anxiety, trauma and loss.

She also helps with parenting concerns, relationship and intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, motivation and mood difficulties. Jean adopts a practical, down-to-earth approach in sessions. She listens closely and tailors conversations to each person's situation.

Background and approach

She uses tools from several well-known therapies to help people notice patterns, try new responses and build steady coping skills. Her work often addresses the emotional impact of difficult events, including grief, abuse and long-term stress. Jean also supports those dealing with eating or sleeping problems, chronic health challenges and caregiving strain.

She is experienced with concerns that affect identity and intimacy, including LGBT matters and attachment-related difficulties. Sessions aim to feel collaborative rather than prescriptive. Jean helps clients set small, achievable goals and practices that fit everyday life.

She encourages realistic steps and regular reflection so progress can be tracked over time. Practical arrangements such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging are available. International clients may be supported in English, and the pathway to start is straightforward for people ready to explore change.

Online support

Approaches that suit online therapy and everyday life

Jean draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) as core ways of working online. ACT helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for stress, anxiety and coping with life changes. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and offers simple, practical exercises to break unhelpful cycles; it often helps with anxiety, low mood, sleep and eating problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jean will talk with each person about goals, preferences and day-to-day routines, then suggest one or a blend of methods. That collaborative process helps shape a plan that fits the person's life and what they want to change.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let the therapist and client use visual cues and do exercises together. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging provide brief updates, thought records or check-ins between sessions. These options make it possible to fit therapy around work, parenting schedules and other commitments while keeping the focus on steady, usable progress.
