About me

I am an experienced counsellor who believes everyone has the potential for change. I qualified in 2005 and completed my training at a local mental health charity where I spent almost three years working with a diverse range of individuals presenting with very different mental health issues.
I try to work holistically as what affects the mind also affects the body (and vice versa) and I think that working through our feelings and how we relate to them, (no matter what the issue) is the primary factor. Despite our many different and varied experiences, ultimately we are all human. I work primarily within a person-centred framework but adapt my approach to meet my clients needs as one size does not fit all and am therefore using an integrative model of working.
I am a warm and caring person and aim to ensure I work ethically and non-judgmentally with all my clients. I can offer a honest and congruent space within which you can be assured the work is confidential and that it is carried out within professional boundaries.
My working hours are;
Mon - Thurs 9-4pm (BST)
Fri 9- 12pm
Mon, Tues, Wed evenings 7.30-9.30pm (2 slots per evening).

Wendy has been such a blessing in my life. She is so kind, considerate, great at listening, and full of insightful comments. She has helped me accept many hard things in my life and helped me see things differently when my thoughts tended to wonder. My anxiety has gotten better as well. I highly recommend Wendy.

Wendy has alot of experience and can see your behaviours and triggers where you cannot see. Also will send you some documents so you can do some self study and self reflection. It has given me time to think of myself and why I am the way I am and how to better myself.
