Wendy is able to hold my story as I share it. she offers a very safe and supportive space for me to make sense of what I am experiencing. Her manner is gentle and warm. I would very much recommend Wendy as a therapist.

This is my first experience of Therapy. It’s been brilliant to chat to Wendy and have someone to chat to, decompress and prioritise what’s important to me.

More about Wendy

  • 4 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I am a licenced UK counsellor with experience in relationship issues both with families and intimate relationships. I have additional training and experience in bereavement as I volunteer at my local hospice. Alongside this I also work with childhood trauma, anxiety, depression, intimate partner violence, divorce and many other circumstances we find ourselves in. I work in a person-centred way which means I will not pressure you to complete tasks you do not want to do but I will listen, prompt you and support you to make your own decisions and find your own path.

I am relaxed and informal in my approach I want you to feel comfortable and safe to discuss whatever is on your mind with no judgement only compassion, empathy and understanding. I am a proud ally of the LGBTQIA+ community.

Before training as a counsellor I was a teacher for 15 years which has given me a wealth of experience in human nature. I enjoy walking my three dogs, painting and attempt to crochet when I have some spare time.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
