About Jemma

Jemma Hamilton-Fletcher offers help for stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and life changes. She creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what feels stuck. Jemma aims to help clients feel more confident and able to make decisions.

She is autistic and has ADHD, and says this shapes how she notices patterns and sensory overwhelm. That experience informs her listening and the practical ways she supports people. Jemma often helps those who feel burned out, trapped in self-critical loops, or unsure how to balance their needs with others'.

Her work mixes Client-Centered Therapy with mindfulness-informed practice. Sessions include short exercises, reflective tasks and straightforward explanations about why certain patterns repeat. She uses creative tools when helpful to open fresh perspectives.

Jemma supports people through parenting stress, relationship difficulties, career questions, grief, trauma and issues around intimacy. She also works with concerns such as ADHD, attachment or avoidant personality patterns, body image, and care-related stress. The list of focus areas is broad and tailored to individual needs.

She recommends approaching counselling consistently and often suggests a three to six month period to get meaningful change, while remaining flexible to what someone needs. Clients are encouraged to set aside time around sessions to think about topics and to reflect afterwards, which she says improves the benefits of the work.

How client-centred and mindfulness work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, acceptance and creating space for people to lead the conversation. It helps with feelings of overwhelm, low self-worth and uncertainty by encouraging the client to set the pace and shape the topics they want to talk about. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple ways to notice thoughts and bodily sensations without judgement. These practices can reduce reactivity to stress and improve focus for people managing anxiety, burnout or trauma-related reactions. Finding the right approach is usually a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to try methods that fit their goals and preferences, adjusting pace and tools as needed. That partnership helps decide whether more reflective, practical or creative techniques suit best. For practicalities, confirm the exact session formats before booking since the profile does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, cut travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that helps. It also lets people use quieter surroundings, reduce screen time when needed, or choose sessions that match their daily routine. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor session length and activities to suit each person’s life and needs.
