Jonathan Fletcher

My name is Jonathan Fletcher and I have worked within education or a professional sporting environment for the last 20 years supporting males to improve their mental health and overall well-being. Within education I’ve helped students overcome low mood, trauma, social anxiety, poor motivation levels and general academic stress.  I’ve supported athletes as they try to balance sporting, academic, social and family commitments. I’ve witnessed firsthand the impact on males who fail to reach out and ask for help when it’s required. For too long there has been a stigma attached to males seeking help and admitting when they are struggling. This is the main driving force behind the reason I've established Y Counselling. I want to play a small part in changing this mindset among males and in doing so, have a positive and lasting impact on the individuals, families, and communities I work with.

Y Counselling is a confidential space for males to explore the thoughts and challenges in their life. I provide counselling, positive psychology and general well-being support for males.

I am a trained integrative counsellor that has worked in a wide range of environments including professional football clubs, Universities and colleges. I have worked with students, clients and athletes to enhance their mental health.

Often the individuals I work wit lack motivation, confidence or the desire to make a change that will not only benefit themselves but also their loved ones around them. Through person-centred counselling sessions and the utilisation of positive psychology I aim to give the clients I work with hope for the future, as I truly believe everyone has the potential to make a change for the better. 

I feel I have a unique blend of relevant experience and qualifications that has equipped me with the necessary skills, knowledge and understanding to make a real and lasting positive impact on the lives of the clients I work with.
