About Jean

Jean Fletcher is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She has worked full time in a charity setting and now sees people in private practice. Her work covers stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and anger among other concerns.

She draws on several practical therapy methods. Jean uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy alongside attachment and client-centred ideas. Sessions focus on clear, manageable steps rather than theory-heavy explanations.

People contact her for help with everyday pressures, career strain, sleep and eating difficulties, and parenting stress. She also supports those dealing with major life changes, bereavement, and the effects of past abuse. Jean lists work with LGBT concerns, ADHD and compassion fatigue as part of her practice too.

Her style is direct and conversational. She aims to talk through what is getting in the way and to build small, practical skills for handling flare-ups of anger or anxiety. Meetings explore reactions, patterns, and what can be tried between sessions.

Jean accepts international clients and offers sessions that use a subscription model which can be cancelled at any time. To start, people choose the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and book a first appointment.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches used for online sessions

Jean commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy alongside Attachment-Based and client-centred ideas. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and focus on actions that matter to them. It is often used when someone wants to reduce avoidance and reconnect with what matters in life.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It offers practical skills to challenge unhelpful thinking and to test new ways of responding to stress or anger. Attachment-Based ideas focus on how past relationships shape current reactions and can help people understand patterns in their close relationships.

Jean treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will discuss options, consider the client’s goals and preferences, and try methods that fit the person’s situation. Adjustments are made as the work progresses so the plan stays useful and relevant.

The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so please confirm available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Therapists and registered or accredited professionals commonly use these practical benefits to help people keep therapy consistent alongside day-to-day demands.
