Jason Fletcher Hypnotherapy and Coaching
Hypnotherapist, FNCIP SQHP
In work with Autism and Asperger’s, the focus is on supporting emotional regulation, anxiety, and overwhelm rather than trying to change who you are. I adapt sessions to your pace and communication style, respecting neurodiversity and individual needs. Therapy provides a structured and supportive space to build greater comfort, understanding, and emotional stability.

Julie Jenner
Counsellor/Therapist, BA(Hons), NCS Senior Accredited
Being late diagnosed Autistic meant I had a lifetime of feeling I was different, but not understanding how and why. It has been a real rollercoaster of a ride discovering so many ways that I had adapted myself to suit others, and to start finally dropping the masks. This helps me to be open about what might be difficult for you, and to support you on your journey of discovery and acceptance. Together we will look at your difficulties, issues with relationships, areas where you struggle and the areas where you flourish. Any kind of otherness often come with low self-worth or beliefs, and I will support and encourage you to turn these around.

Online in Sunderland, England (Online Only)
Sunderland is a city in the northeast of England with a proud history in shipbuilding and coal mining, and its post-industrial economic transformation has left significant deprivation in many communities, with mental health need among the highest in the country across a range of indicators. NHS mental health services are provided through Cumbria, Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust, one of England's largest mental health trusts, though demand consistently exceeds capacity. The University of Sunderland contributes to the local mental health workforce through its psychology and counselling programmes, and a private therapy sector exists alongside NHS provision. Common therapy concerns include depression, anxiety, substance use, relationship difficulties, and the psychological effects of long-term unemployment and community decline that have affected many Wearside neighbourhoods.
