About me
Hi, I’m Wendy. I’m a warm, friendly, and approachable counsellor and my aim is to help you make sense of what’s going on in your life.
There are lots of reasons you might be thinking about starting counselling.
You might feel stuck, lost, overwhelmed, worried, anxious, lonely, or low — or maybe you’re coping with a big life change, a loss, health issues, trauma, or just the ups and downs of everyday life.
Whatever’s brought you here is valid, and your situation is completely unique.
"Counselling isn’t about fixing you - because you were never broken to begin with.
I work from a person-centred approach, which means I offer a safe, calm, and non-judgmental space where you can explore the challenges you’re facing and gain a deeper understanding of yourself. Put simply, I’ll ask, “How are you?” — and offer a gentle, supportive space where you can share whatever you’re feeling, openly and honestly, without fear of judgment or your emotions being dismissed or minimised.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a qualified Person-Centred counsellor with additional training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).
I have experience working as a Samaritans listening volunteer, where I developed a deep respect for the power of being heard without judgement.
Member organisations
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.
