About Wendy

Wendy Trickett is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has nine years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with adults on issues like relationships, family conflict, parenting, self-esteem and coping with life changes. Wendy also supports people facing anxiety, depression, grief, addiction and problems with sleep or eating.

She views clients as the experts in their own lives and uses that perspective to guide her work. Wendy draws on client-centred methods to listen and reflect. She also uses cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness tools when helpful.

Sessions focus on practical steps as well as on understanding patterns that keep problems cycling. Wendy often helps people notice strengths they already have. Conversations can include looking at thoughts and behaviours, practising present-moment awareness, and telling the story of difficult events in a new way.

People come to her with a mix of everyday stresses and longer-term issues, such as caregiving strain, blended family challenges, grief after loss, or struggles with intimacy and communication. She also addresses concerns linked to ageing, attachment and the fallout from domestic or relationship trauma.

Her approach aims to be straightforward and respectful. Wendy encourages small, manageable changes and supports clients as they try new ways of coping. For practical steps to begin, the site’s matching process is used to arrange an initial session.

How Wendy uses therapy approaches online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low motivation and coping with change by focusing on small, value-driven steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and offers practical techniques for anxiety, depression and sleep or eating difficulties. Client-Centred Therapy centres the client’s perspective, using reflective listening and open questions to help people uncover strengths and make their own decisions.

Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. Wendy will work with clients to try methods that fit their goals and day-to-day life. She adapts how techniques are used based on what the person finds most helpful and what they want to focus on.

The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week and keeping regular check-ins when life is hectic. Please confirm the current session formats before booking so you know how meetings are held. Online sessions can make it easier to attend shorter check-ins, avoid travel time and use tools such as guided mindfulness exercises or CBT worksheets during the session.
