Jemma Hamilton-Fletcher, BACP

Jemma Hamilton-Fletcher offers help for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and life changes. She supports those coping with ADHD, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting pressure, career strain and compassion fatigue. Jemma also works with issues such as trauma, attachment and caregiver stress, and has an additional focus on aging and geriatric issues. She aims to create a calm, accepting space where people can unpick what is holding them back and try out new ways of coping.

Jemma is a BACP counsellor with five years of practice in the United Kingdom. She is autistic and has ADHD, and says that these experiences shape how she notices sensory overwhelm and emotional patterns. That perspective informs her approach and helps her adapt sessions to each person’s needs without pressure.

Her style is person-centred and practical. Sessions often include short exercises, reflective tasks and gentle psychoeducation. Creative tools may be used to help people see a problem from a different angle and to practice new responses between sessions.

Jemma usually recommends a period of work to build momentum, commonly three to six months, but she tailors the length to what an individual needs. She encourages people to set aside time before and after sessions to think and reflect, which many find helps the therapeutic work feel more useful in day-to-day life.

She supports people navigating change, reducing self-criticism, and finding small shifts that bring greater ease, clearer decisions and more confidence in everyday life.

How client-centred and mindfulness approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding your perspective and following your lead. The therapist listens without judgement, mirrors what you say and helps you find your own solutions. This approach is often useful for building self-compassion and tackling low self-esteem.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention practices and awareness of bodily sensations and thoughts. These tools can help with anxiety, stress and managing overwhelm by creating more space to choose how to respond rather than react.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with you to identify what feels most helpful based on your goals, needs and preferences. Together you can try different techniques and adapt the pace and focus as you go.

The original profile does not specify which online formats are offered, so confirm the current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits your schedule. They also let you use practical exercises and mindfulness practices between meetings so the work carries into everyday life.
