Jean Fletcher, BACP

Jean Fletcher trained and practised as a counsellor in the United Kingdom and has four years of professional experience. She worked full time in a charity setting and later moved into private practice, building a practical counselling approach. Jean aims to make the first steps towards therapy less daunting for people seeking support.

Jean focuses on everyday problems that pile up and become hard to manage. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression and bipolar mood concerns. She also supports those facing trauma and abuse, grief and loss, or challenges with self‑esteem and motivation.

Her work covers relationship and intimacy difficulties, parenting strains, eating and sleeping problems, and issues related to ADHD and compassion fatigue. Jean also pays attention to attachment, abandonment, adoption and foster care experiences, and the pressures carers face when supporting someone with chronic illness or disability.

Jean uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment‑Based methods, Client‑Centered work, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy to shape sessions. She adapts how sessions run to fit each person’s needs and goals, keeping things practical and clear.

Sessions are offered in English and Jean accepts international clients. Fees vary by location and are charged through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then focus on actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and motivation. Attachment‑Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people build more secure ways of relating, which can help with intimacy and relationship worries.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jean will discuss these methods with clients and choose what fits their goals and preferences. Together they decide whether to focus on managing symptoms, improving relationships, or building practical skills for everyday life.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when meeting in person is difficult, phone sessions work well if bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging can be useful for shorter check-ins or when typing feels easier than talking. These options offer flexibility so people can keep therapy going around work, care duties or travel.
