About Wendy
Wendy Bennett is a counsellor who focuses on people dealing with money and financial issues alongside a range of personal concerns. She offers a calm, informal style that aims to help people talk through worries without pressure. Sessions are intended to give space to make decisions and find a clearer path forward.
Wendy works in a person-centred way. That means she listens, reflects and prompts rather than setting tasks a person does not want. The approach supports people to make their own choices and build confidence over time.
She draws on four years of counselling experience and prior work as a teacher for 15 years. The teaching background is used to help explain difficult ideas simply and to adapt conversations to each person’s needs. She also volunteers at a local hospice and has direct experience supporting people through bereavement.
Wendy helps with a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, grief, parenting strain, and coping with life changes. She also works with trauma and abuse, ADHD, attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, chronic illness and caregiver stress among other issues.
Wendy is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She provides counselling in the United Kingdom and holds an affirming stance toward LGBTQIA+ people. Outside work she enjoys walking her three dogs, painting and occasional crochet.
Person-centred work and online counselling options
Wendy's main approach is Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on listening, empathy and supporting people to find their own answers. This approach suits issues where people need space to make decisions, such as coping with life changes, relationship dilemmas and money worries.Her background supporting bereavement at a hospice means she is familiar with grief conversations and the slow, careful pace those often require. That experience can help when people bring complex feelings about loss, illness or difficult life transitions into sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Wendy will discuss goals and preferences with a new client and agree together what will help most. She aims to adapt the pace and focus to each person's needs rather than following a fixed route.
Practical benefits of online therapy can include fitting sessions into a busy life and keeping regular contact when travel is difficult. The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so please confirm the current session options before booking. A clear discussion at the first appointment will help arrange times and a way of working that fits everyday routines.
