About Wendy
Wendy Dunbar offers approachable counselling for people wrestling with stress, anxiety, addiction and low mood. She is named as a BACP practitioner and works from the United Kingdom. Her style aims to help people feel listened to and begin making small, manageable changes in daily life.
Wendy creates a calm atmosphere where clients can talk about difficult thoughts and feelings without judgement. She uses straightforward conversation to help people gain new perspective on problems such as grief, panic attacks, and long-term mood difficulties.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical steps and understanding what keeps a problem going day to day. Her background includes years supporting wellbeing in health settings and the education sector, where she worked alongside other services to provide wraparound support. That experience informs how she responds to concerns such as chronic pain, illness and disability, and the emotional impact of life-changing diagnoses.
She also addresses issues around attachment, abandonment fears, body image and problems with communication or control. Wendy is familiar with working through the fallout of relationship breakdown, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation. Wendy commits to ongoing professional development and regular supervision as part of her BACP membership.
People who prefer gentle, conversational therapy that aims for steady, practical progress may find her approach helpful.

How Wendy works online
Finding the right approach is often a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels manageable, then try methods that suit the person's needs. Together they check in and adjust the way they work as progress is made.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make therapy easier to fit into busy days, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people join sessions from different locations when that helps them keep therapy steady alongside everyday commitments.
