About me
Hello I’m Wendi, I offer counselling in Welsh and/or English; online or face to face . I provide a confidential, non-judgemental and safe place to discuss issues and problems; working with you towards a resolution that is helpful for you. I have 25 years experience working as a counsellor.
I believe in being open, genuine and keeping things simple; offering a safe, relaxed & confidential space, with no pressure or judgement.
I aim to work along side you in finding a resolution that is right for you, in a empathic and understanding manner. There is no issue that is too small, if something is causing you pain and difficulty, then it is a issue for you. It could be that your are feeling stresed, unhappy, unfulfilled, undervalued, out of balance, or have lost direction. Maybe you are at a crossroads in life, facing changes or just a feeling that something is not right with you.
The things we find difficult come in many guises and can be really hard to deal with alone; counselling can help.
It does not matter if your issue is a current one, or an unresolved one from your past, using a flexible & integrated approach, I can support you on your journey towards finding the best outcome possible for you. I am comfortable with any issues that you may wish to discuss, with empathy and understanding.
Whatever your reasons for seeking support right now, I can offer you a respectful, empathic and non-judgmental space for you to come and talk about what you are finding challenging.
I find it useful to have an brief consultation before commencing therapy so that we can decide. We can then agree to a flexible and appropriate number of sessions.
I am a BACP registred and accredited counsellor who has been working in private practice since 2001. I comply with the BACP code of conduct and ethics and have regular supervision, insurance, a DBS, as well as continuing professional development.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

Further information
Life can be a real challenge at times for all of us. These struggles can feel overwhelming and may cause great distress; affecting the way we behave and think. I firmly believe counselling can help us gain a better understanding of the difficulties that we may be dealing with and in turn that understanding can help us find a resolution that gives us a calmer life. I am a registered and accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and work within their ethical framework and guidelines. I provide short and long term counselling, working from a humanistic, person-centred perspective. The central and fundamental part of any counselling or therapy is the relationship and trust that we can develop during our work together. Building on this strengthens our ability for self-development, growth and learning from the challenges that we face in life.
