How Wendy uses therapy approaches online
Wendy works with methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based approaches to help people manage difficult feelings and relationships. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings and choosing actions that match personal values, which can help with anxiety, stress and adjusting to health changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how earlier relationships shape current patterns and can help with intimacy, trust and communication issues.Choosing which approach to use is a shared task. Wendy will talk with the person about their goals, needs and preferences and suggest what to try first. If something does not fit, she will adjust the plan so sessions feel useful and relevant.
The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing the time spent travelling. Online work can make it easier to have shorter check-ins between appointments or to use different tools during a conversation. Please confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are available and which will best fit your day.
