Jordan Fletcher-Dale

Jordan Fletcher-Dale is a BACP counsellor who helps people with stress, anxiety, depression and eating and food-related issues. He also supports people dealing with relationship strain, grief, trauma and self-esteem concerns. His style aims to keep the client in control of sessions while offering steady, respectful guidance.

He draws mainly on Client-Centred Therapy, so conversations are led by the person in front of him. That means sessions focus on what matters most to the client and move at their pace. Jordan also uses psychodynamic ideas to help people notice patterns from earlier life that may be shaping current feelings and behaviour.

Jordan has three years' experience working in counselling roles, including volunteering for the NHS and delivering one-to-one open-ended counselling. He has worked in primary schools and tutors a Level 2 Counselling Skills course, which informs his way of explaining ideas simply and clearly.

In practice he aims to combine warmth, straightforward feedback and thoughtful listening. He emphasises autonomy, treating people with respect and following the BACP ethical framework. Sessions are intended to be a place to talk through difficult feelings and to notice unhelpful patterns.

People who come to him explore issues such as attachment and abandonment, codependency, body image and intimacy-related concerns. He also supports those working through separation, addiction issues and the emotional effects of trauma. The goal is usually clearer self-understanding and more practical ways to manage day-to-day challenges.

How client-led and psychodynamic work translates online

Client-Centred Therapy is about following the person's lead, offering empathy and accepting their experience. Online sessions can preserve that same focus by letting the client set the agenda and pace while the counsellor reflects and supports. Psychodynamic work looks at how past relationships and experiences shape current feelings. Online conversations can still uncover patterns and recurring themes that influence behaviour and relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide whether a client-centred focus, psychodynamic exploration, or a blend suits the person's goals and preferences. This is revisited as therapy progresses so the work stays relevant and practical.

The practical benefits of online therapy often include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy life, which helps maintain consistency. Online work can also reduce travel time and make it simpler to have a shorter check-in when needed. The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current options before booking to ensure they match practical needs.
