About Wendy
Wendy Dunbar is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of post-qualification experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, family issues, grief and depression and works with adults who bring these concerns. Sessions are conducted in English.
Wendy uses person-centred ways of working. She aims to build a trusting therapeutic relationship where people can talk through hard feelings and begin to make changes. Her practice draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques alongside body-focused relaxation methods learned from health-sector work.
Before qualifying she worked in health settings supporting physical and emotional wellbeing. She also spent around 20 years in the education sector supporting children with learning and behavioural needs and collaborating with other services to provide joined-up care.
Wendy has a particular interest in the emotional effects of life-changing physical health problems and injuries. She also has experience discussing spiritual or religious concerns with clients, including people with Christian beliefs. Her professional membership is with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which informs her ongoing professional development.
She follows professional practice standards and attends regular supervision. If a client discloses information that legally requires a report, she will follow the required steps and would aim to discuss this with the client when possible.

Therapeutic approaches and remote sessions
Wendy uses person-centred practice as a core approach, which focuses on listening and creating a respectful relationship so people can talk through their thoughts and feelings and decide what changes to make. Person-centred work is suited to low mood, anxiety and grief where someone needs space to be heard.She also uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques alongside relaxing body methods drawn from her health-sector experience. Evidence-based techniques involve structured ways of looking at thoughts and behaviours to reduce symptoms, while body-based relaxation can help when stress or chronic pain affects day-to-day functioning.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Wendy will discuss what matters most to the person and agree which methods to try first, then adjust the plan according to progress and preference.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Remote sessions can make it simpler to fit therapy into a working day, reduce travel time and allow more flexible scheduling. Some formats are quicker for brief check-ins while others support longer therapeutic work; discuss practical needs with Wendy when arranging the first appointment.
