Jemma Brett

Jemma Brett is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with four years' experience. She works with adults who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low mood, parenting pressures, life changes and ADHD, and she lists life purpose among her focus areas. Jemma aims to be direct and human in sessions and supports people who feel stuck or unsure what comes next.

In practice she combines what she learnt in training with her own life experience. Sessions are straightforward conversations about what is happening now and what the person wants to change. Jemma pays attention to how daily routines, relationships and work affect mood and direction. She offers a neurodivergent-affirming approach for people who identify as neurodivergent and wants to help them find ways to manage demands that fit their life.

People can expect practical ideas to test between sessions alongside reflective discussion. She helps unpack unhelpful patterns such as control struggles, communication breakdowns, guilt and isolation. Parenting stress, caregiver pressure and relationship shifts are treated as part of the story rather than separate problems.

Jemma also works with concerns like attachment issues, social anxiety and separation after divorce. Conversations often focus on small, realistic changes that make daily life easier and clearer. She supports clients looking to explore life purpose without suggesting any fixed outcome.

Sessions are offered in English and take place in the United Kingdom. The therapist uses a subscription model for sessions, and that subscription can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Jemma uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help with mood, anxiety, parenting stress and questions of life purpose. One approach focuses on practical problem-solving and behaviour change to tackle daily stressors and routines. This method breaks down overwhelming tasks into small steps and tests changes between sessions to see what helps.

Another approach emphasises understanding attachment and relational patterns. It looks at how past and current relationships shape reactions and communication, and supports people to experiment with new ways of relating. Both approaches are accessible and aim to link what happens in sessions to everyday life challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jemma will work collaboratively to decide which techniques suit a person’s needs and goals, and she adjusts the method as those needs become clearer. This means sessions can shift focus from problem-solving to exploring life purpose if that is more useful.

The biography does not list specific session formats here, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare and travel. It can also allow shorter check-ins or phone sessions when video would be difficult, helping therapy fit into a busy week.
