Jemma Hamilton-FletcherBACP

Jemma Hamilton-Fletcher offers calm, practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and the pressures of major life changes. She creates a non-judgemental space where clients can look at what is holding them back. Jemma aims to help people notice small shifts that bring more ease into everyday life and clearer choices about what matters to them.

Jemma is autistic and has ADHD, and she uses that lived experience to notice patterns of overwhelm and sensory intensity. This influences how she structures sessions and the tools she suggests. She focuses on helping clients feel calmer, more confident, and better able to balance their needs with others'.

Typical work includes practical exercises, short reflections and simple psychoeducation to make things easier to understand. Jemma draws on person-centred methods and mindfulness-based ideas to shape conversations. She keeps a gentle pace and adapts to what the client finds manageable.

People come for help with burnout, perfectionism, relationship strain, parenting pressures and grief, among other concerns. Jemma pays attention to thoughts, feelings, bodily reactions and life circumstances when planning sessions.

She usually suggests a block of therapy lasting three to six months, though this can be adjusted to fit individual needs. Jemma encourages clients to set aside a little time before and after sessions to prepare and to reflect on what has been discussed.

How her approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy places the client's experience at the heart of sessions. The therapist listens closely and follows what feels most important to the person, helping them set the pace and topics to cover. This approach suits worries about self-esteem, life changes and relationship concerns.

Mindfulness Therapy uses simple attention and grounding exercises to reduce overwhelming feelings. It helps with anxiety, stress and moments of strong emotional reactivity by teaching short practices to steady breathing and notice bodily signals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jemma will talk with each person about their needs and preferences, then try methods that fit. That way the plan can be adjusted if a technique does not feel helpful or needs simplifying.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and removing travel time so it is easier to keep a steady rhythm. Online work can also make it simpler to access a therapist who understands neurodivergent experience when local options are limited. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking to make sure the timings and setup meet your needs.
