About Jean
Jean Fletcher is a BACP counsellor who has worked in the UK both for a charity and in private practice. She has four years of experience supporting people through grief, stress, anxiety and trauma. Jean focuses on listening carefully and tailoring sessions to each person's needs. She aims to make the first step easier for someone who feels daunted by starting therapy.
Jean describes her approach as trauma-informed and grounded in respect and sensitivity. She helps people talk through low self-esteem, confidence and motivation problems. She also supports those dealing with relationship strains, intimacy concerns and the practical burdens of caregiving and chronic illness.
Her work draws on therapies that help people notice difficult thoughts, learn new skills and strengthen close bonds. Jean uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thinking and encourage small changes. She also uses Attachment-Based and Client-Centred approaches to build a steady, trusting conversation.
Sessions are shaped around what a person needs that week - whether that is paced trauma work, short-term coping skills, or ongoing support through grief and life transitions. Jean encourages people to bring practical concerns, such as sleep or eating problems, into sessions so they can be addressed alongside emotional work.
She welcomes international clients and conducts work in English. Before starting, readers should use the site process to match with her and book according to the available scheduling options.

How Jean's approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress and motivation problems by teaching practical ways to move forward. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking that keep problems going and practising small changes that alter mood and behaviour. This approach often helps with sleep, eating, low mood and worry. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships affect current connections and can help with intimacy concerns and communicating needs.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jean treats this as a collaborative process. She will discuss goals, try methods that suit your needs, and adjust the plan if something does not feel helpful. You and she decide together what to focus on and how to pace sessions.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to continue support during major life changes or while caring for someone, since sessions can be scheduled around other responsibilities.
