Counselling can help you develop a greater awareness and understanding of your thoughts, feelings and behaviours, allowing you to explore what may be affecting you and consider the choices available to you.
Through this process, you can gain greater clarity, build confidence and develop more effective ways of managing life's challenges. Counselling can also provide an opportunity to explore patterns, emotions and experiences in a safe and supportive environment, helping you to better understand
About me and my practice
About Me
Hello, I'm Wendy, a qualified counsellor and psychotherapist offering a warm, supportive, and confidential space where you can explore whatever may be going on in your life.
I work as an integrative counsellor, which means I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches, with a strong foundation in person-centred therapy. At the heart of my work is the belief that you are the expert in your own life. My role is to support you in developing a deeper understanding of yourself, exploring what may be affecting you and helping you find your own way forward.
I believe that a strong, trusting relationship between counsellor and client is an important part of effective therapy. I aim to create a safe, supportive and non-judgmental space where you can feel comfortable talking openly and honestly about your thoughts, feelings, emotions and experiences.
Our sessions will move at your pace, giving you the time and space to explore what matters most to you. Depending on your individual needs, we may work together to develop coping strategies, build emotional resilience, establish healthy boundaries, explore patterns of behavior, and create a greater sense of balance in your life.
I offer online counselling sessions in a safe, confidential and comfortable environment, allowing you to access support from wherever you feel most at ease.
I have experience supporting people with a wide range of personal, emotional and life challenges, including:
Bereavement and loss, including miscarriage and child loss
Anxiety and depression
Medical diagnoses and health-related concerns
Suicidal thoughts and intrusive thoughts relating to self-harm
Low self-esteem and confidence
Anger and emotional regulation
Relationship difficulties
Autism and ADHD
Menopause and menopause-related concerns
Work-related stress and difficulties
Other personal, emotional and life challenges
If you would like to know more about how I work or have any questions about counselling, please contact me.
Experience
Experience
Alongside developing my private practice, I have volunteered with a number of charities, providing counselling support to both children and adults. This has included working with individuals experiencing a range of emotional and mental health difficulties, including those with more complex needs who may otherwise face barriers to accessing therapy due to financial circumstances.
I completed voluntary training with Evolve, where I supported individuals experiencing a variety of challenges, including depression, bereavement, addiction, ADHD, menopause, autism, relationship difficulties, and work-related concerns. This experience has allowed me to develop a broad understanding of the different circumstances and challenges that can impact a person's emotional well-being.
I also trained with Place2Be, providing support to primary school children on both a one-to-one and group basis. This involved helping children explore and express their emotions, develop coping strategies, and support their emotional well-being within the school environment.
In addition, I volunteered with The Charlie's Angel Foundation, supporting individuals and families affected by pregnancy and infant loss. This included supporting people following miscarriage, the loss of a child at any age, and both elective and medically necessary terminations. This work provided valuable experience in supporting clients through profound grief, loss, and the wide range of emotions that can accompany these experiences.
Together, these experiences have helped me develop a compassionate, non-judgmental, and adaptable approach to counselling, allowing me to support people from a range of backgrounds and with a variety of life experiences and challenges.

Initial Consultation
First Session
Our first session will include an initial assessment, giving us the opportunity to begin getting to know one another and building a therapeutic relationship. This relationship is an important foundation for creating a safe, supportive space for our work together.
The first session is also an opportunity for you to ask any questions you may have about counselling or the way I work. I will gently invite you to share a little about yourself, your life and the challenges you are currently experiencing. You can share as much or as little as you feel comfortable with.
This will help us develop a clearer understanding of what has brought you to counselling and what you would like support with. Together, we can begin to explore your needs, identify what you would like to work towards and consider how we can work together moving forward.
We will also discuss the therapeutic approach that may be most appropriate for you and how I can best support you throughout your counselling
