About Jemma

Jemma Hamilton-Fletcher offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, or low self-esteem. She recognises how perfectionism and self-doubt can make day-to-day life feel heavy. Jemma works to help clients notice small changes that lead to more ease and confidence over time.

She is autistic and has ADHD, and says this shapes how she notices patterns of emotional and sensory overwhelm. That perspective informs how she listens and responds, and she aims to make sessions accessible for neurodivergent and neurotypical people alike. The aim is to help clients feel calmer and more able to make choices that suit them.

In session she uses a person-centred way of working and draws on mindfulness practices. Conversations are practical and paced to what feels manageable. She may offer short exercises, reflections or simple psychoeducation when these help move things forward.

Jemma supports adults facing anxiety, burnout, life changes, relationship strain and grief. She also works with issues such as ADHD-related challenges, attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, and intimacy-related difficulties. Work together often focuses on reducing self-criticism, building self-compassion, and finding practical steps to cope with daily demands.

She has five years of experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Therapy is generally planned over a period so that change can be noticed and practised between sessions, with flexibility according to individual needs.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being listened to without judgement and on shaping sessions around what matters to each person. It helps with anxiety, low self-esteem and decisions about life changes by creating space to think and be heard.

Mindfulness Therapy involves simple attention and breathing exercises that bring awareness to thoughts and bodily sensations. These practices can help manage stress, reduce reactivity, and build steadier routines day to day.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Jemma will work with each person to decide which methods feel most useful, and she adapts pace and tools to match goals and preferences. That means trying things, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together.

The practical benefits of online working include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time so therapy can slot into everyday life. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments and to try short check-ins when a brief session suits better. The original biography does not specify which session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking to ensure they match your needs.
