About Wendy

Wendy Bennett is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship problems and grief. She works with individuals facing low self-esteem, parenting pressures, life changes and trauma. Wendy aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk things through and decide what feels right for them.

Wendy uses a client-centred approach, which means she listens closely and follows the person’s pace. She will prompt and reflect rather than push tasks or solutions.

Background and approach

This way of working supports people who need time to find their own answers and build confidence. She brings four years of counselling experience and a background of 15 years in teaching. That former role gave her practical experience of helping people communicate and cope with stress.

Wendy also volunteers at a local hospice and has additional work around bereavement and end of life concerns. Wendy often supports people dealing with trauma, intimate partner violence, divorce and separation, or long-term health challenges. She also has experience with issues linked to attachment, abandonment, autism and Asperger syndrome, and body image concerns.

Outside work she enjoys walking her three dogs, painting and trying out crochet. She is an ally of the LGBTQIA+ community and offers sessions in English from the United Kingdom.

Ways of working Wendy names

Client-Centred Therapy

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How client-centred ways of working translate online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on warmth, active listening and acceptance. The therapist gives space for the person to lead the conversation and helps them notice their own thoughts and feelings. This approach suits people dealing with anxiety, grief, relationship strain and life changes because it emphasises understanding and personal choice.

Finding the right style is part of the work. Wendy will check in with each person about what feels helpful and adapt sessions to their needs and goals. That collaborative process guides whether sessions stay focused on emotional processing, practical coping, or a mix of both.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to make counselling more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation across distance. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and messaging work well for brief check-ins, reflective writing or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options help people fit therapy around work, family or mobility needs while keeping the same client-centred approach they would find in person.
