How Wendy works online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and feelings without getting pushed around by them. It focuses on values and small actions that move a person toward the life they want. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and helps people test and change unhelpful habits. It often suits anxiety, stress and mood concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to relationship patterns formed over time and helps people understand how those patterns affect current relationships and intimacy.

Choosing an approach is part of the work. Wendy will talk with each person about goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit those aims. Together they decide what to try first and review progress as therapy continues.

Confirm the exact online options before booking so you know which formats are currently offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, save travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule. It also means people can join from different locations within the United Kingdom without needing to travel to a clinic.
