About Jemma
Jemma Hamilton-Fletcher is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years of experience. She works with people feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck. Common concerns include stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and struggles with relationships or codependency. She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma, parenting strain, career stress and compassion fatigue.
Jemma identifies as autistic and as someone with ADHD, and she uses that lived experience to notice patterns of overwhelm and sensory distress. She helps clients spot the habits that keep them trapped in self-critical loops. Conversations aim to be straightforward and practical, focusing on small changes that make daily life easier.
Her approach is rooted in client-centred work and mindfulness. Sessions include practical exercises, reflections, and short pieces of psychoeducation when useful. She often brings creative tools to offer fresh ways of looking at familiar problems.
Jemma encourages steady, consistent work rather than quick fixes. She commonly suggests an initial block of three to six months to see meaningful shifts, but she adapts this to each person’s situation. She asks clients to set aside a little time before and after sessions to prepare and process what comes up.
People who find it hard to say no, who wear themselves thin for others, or who feel overwhelmed by other people’s moods may find her approach relevant. She supports adults navigating life changes, questions of intimacy, and the practical steps involved in feeling more confident and calm.
How sessions work
How her approaches work for online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens closely and follows what matters to the client, helping them find their own solutions. This approach helps with low self-esteem, relationship stress, and feeling overwhelmed by others.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple ways to notice thoughts, feelings and bodily sensations without getting swept away. Practising short mindfulness steps can reduce reactivity and help with anxiety, burnout and emotional overwhelm. These exercises are usually short and practical, designed to fit into everyday life.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. The counsellor will discuss what feels most useful, adapt techniques, and check in about pace and focus as sessions progress. This collaborative way helps match methods to goals and preferences.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, since specific options are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some people prefer not to be on camera, while others find video helpful for connection; these practical choices can be discussed when arranging sessions.
