Jean Fletcher has worked as a counsellor in the UK for four years. She built experience in a charity setting and later in independent practice. Jean holds BACP registration which reflects her professional standing in the UK.

She focuses on practical support for day to day struggles as well as deeper patterns that cause pain. Jean helps people manage stress and anxiety and cope after trauma or loss. She offers support for low mood, bipolar mood concerns, and self-esteem struggles.

Background and approach

She also works with issues around relationships, intimacy, parenting and career challenges. Her wider focus includes eating and sleeping problems, ADHD, compassion fatigue and chronic health worries. Her style is warm and respectful.

She aims to listen without judgement and to adapt sessions to each person. Jean describes her approach as collaborative, helping people set realistic goals and notice what changes are possible between sessions. In therapy she draws on methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas, cognitive work and skills from Dialectical Behaviour Therapy.

Sessions are rooted in real-life steps - learning new ways to cope, spotting unhelpful thoughts, and practising small changes. Jean recognises that starting therapy can feel daunting. She offers a calm space to talk through concerns and make a plan together.

Sessions are tailored to what a person needs at each stage of their progress.

Therapeutic approaches for online counselling

Jean uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on values-based actions. ACT encourages small practical steps and learning to live with difficult feelings while pursuing meaningful goals.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy which looks at patterns in close relationships and how early experiences shape current reactions. This approach helps people understand why they relate to others in certain ways and supports new ways of connecting.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jean will discuss options and help decide which methods match a client's needs, goals and preferences. That decision is made together and can change as therapy progresses.

Online sessions can be run by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Chat and messaging suit people who prefer to write, want brief check-ins, or need flexibility with timing. These formats make therapy easier to fit around work, caregiving or travel, while keeping the focus on practical tools and steady progress.
