About Jemma

Jemma Brett is a BACP counsellor who supports adults facing stress, anxiety, low mood, parenting pressures and life changes. She also helps people living with ADHD to make sense of daily challenges and to find ways that suit them. Her style is down-to-earth and compassionate, with an emphasis on listening and practical support.

Jemma draws on both professional training and her own lived experience to shape sessions. She aims for honest, human conversations where people feel heard without judgement.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on small, achievable steps as well as understanding patterns that feed worry or low mood. People come to Jemma with a wide range of concerns. These include attachment issues, caregiver stress, communication and control problems, separation and divorce, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation.

She also works with questions of life purpose, self-love, mood disorders and social anxiety or phobia. Her approach involves exploring what is most helpful for each person. That might mean talking through relationship difficulties, finding routines that reduce overwhelm, or building strategies for managing intrusive thoughts.

She pays attention to practical changes as well as emotional understanding. Jemma practises in the United Kingdom and offers therapy in English. She aims to help people build tools they can use outside sessions and to tailor her support to individual needs and preferences.

How Jemma works online

Jemma describes her practice as evidence-based and aims to use approaches that help with thinking patterns, routines and relationships. Cognitive approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new ways of reacting, which can help with anxiety and low mood. Practical behaviour-focused techniques concentrate on small routine changes and experiments to reduce overwhelm and build confidence. Neurodivergent-affirming ways of working mean adapting strategies to fit how each person experiences the world, rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all plan.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. She will work collaboratively to decide which techniques match a person's goals, needs and preferences. That might mean trying a few different ways of working and adjusting them over time based on what helps most.

The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available online options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare or travel, reduce time spent commuting, and allow for shorter check-ins when a quick conversation will help. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor sessions to the practical realities of everyday life so therapy is more usable and relevant.
