Background and approach
Wendy draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to tailor sessions. She uses Emotionally-Focused and Client-Centred ideas as well when they fit the situation. These methods are chosen to match what the individual needs that week.
Over nearly three decades she has helped people dealing with trauma and abuse, sexual assault and coercive control. She has experience with neurodiversity, including autism and Asperger syndrome, and works with complex issues like codependency, body image and chronic illness. Wendy holds NCPS credentialing, which is listed as NCPS.
Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by video, phone, live chat or messaging. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and books a time that suits them.
How therapy approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on values and small actions that move someone toward a life they want, which can be helpful for anxiety, stress and life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It uses simple exercises to shift unhelpful thinking patterns and build coping skills for depression, anxiety and addictive behaviours.
Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current patterns. It can help people who struggle with connection, abandonment fears or relationship cycles by exploring needs and building different ways of relating.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and then try methods that suit the person. That collaborative process means the plan can change as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or messaging. Video is useful for a fuller conversation, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat gives a quicker check-in and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make therapy easier to fit around work, family and other commitments.
