About Wendy
Wendy Johnson is a counsellor who uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to support people through trauma, abuse, grief and major life changes. She works in the United Kingdom and brings seven years of professional experience to her practice. Wendy writes simply and clearly, and she aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable.
Wendy believes the person in the room knows their own story best. She looks for strengths in each person and uses those strengths to build coping strategies.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical steps and short-term skills as well as deeper reflection when it feels helpful. In sessions she pays attention to what matters most to the client. Conversations are paced to suit how someone prefers to talk and to what they feel ready to address.
This can include learning ways to reduce flashbacks or intrusive memories, working through the stages of grief, or planning for life after a major change. She encourages small, steady goals that fit everyday life. That might mean practising grounding techniques, setting boundaries, or planning routines that aid recovery and resilience.
Wendy highlights what people are already doing well and adds techniques to make those efforts more effective. Starting therapy can feel daunting and Wendy acknowledges that with simple, direct guidance. She helps people take the next step, from a short matching questionnaire to scheduling sessions that work with their life and commitments.

Practical therapy approaches and online options
Wendy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical recovery. One approach helps people process traumatic memories by teaching grounding and stabilising skills; this reduces the intensity of intrusive memories and helps with day-to-day coping. Another technique focuses on grief work, guiding people through stages of loss with pacing and tasks that help rebuild routines and find meaning after change.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Wendy discusses options with each person, looks at their goals and preferences, and tries methods that fit their pace. The therapist and client review what helps and adjust the approach over time so it feels right for the person.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be a simpler check-in with lower bandwidth, and chat or text work well for brief check-ins or when writing is easier. These options make therapy more flexible for people balancing work, family and other commitments.
