Explore what you are experiencing in a safe, supportive environment.
About Me
I trained at Waverley Abbey College and hold a Diploma of Higher Education in Counselling from Middlesex University. Additionally, I have earned a Certificate in Online and Telephone Counselling.
I am a registered counsellor with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), adhering to their ethical framework. I also volunteer for Stafford and District Bereavement and Loss Support Service.
My Approach
As an integrative counsellor, I combine several approaches to best suit your needs. Some sessions may focus on past experiences, while others might explore the connections between thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and physical health. I primarily work with adults experiencing loss, helping them share their stories and begin to process grief.
Benefits of Counselling
Counselling can offer the support needed to focus on different aspects of our lives in a non-judgemental space, where you can express the pain that you may be in. It can also help unlock the grieving process, especially when you feel stuck.
Working with Loss
I specialise in working with various forms of loss. Whether it's the loss of a loved one, health, or a major life change, I am here to help you process and navigate through these challenges.

“Wendy listened and was able to provide support to enable me to move forward, it really helped me to know she was there if and when I needed her support.”

“What has been most helpful is having someone to listen to you who is completely impartial. I feel talking in the safe space allows you to educate your own mind and evaluate your own strengths and weaknesses. Thank you for your valuable input.”

Counselling allows you to explore personal challenges in a supportive and confidential manner. This might include processing difficult or painful experiences.
Yes, everything discussed during counselling sessions remains confidential. However, there are exceptions regarding risk of harm or legal matters, where I would be required to make a disclosure, ideally with your consent, to your GP.
I do not work with clients under the age of 18, but I can refer you to other relevant services if needed.
