About Wendy

Wendy Trickett is an NCPS counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with nine years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, self‑esteem, coping with life changes, addictions, trauma, grief and other common difficulties. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.

Wendy works from a person‑centred perspective. She starts by listening to the person's account of their life and what they are finding difficult. She treats people as the experts on their own experience and looks for strengths and skills they can use more often.

Her approach also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioural ideas, mindfulness and narrative techniques. Those methods are used to help people notice unhelpful thoughts, try small behaviour changes and make room for what matters to them. Conversations aim to be practical and grounded rather than full of jargon.

Wendy regularly helps with parenting strain, blended family problems, caregiver stress and ageing or geriatric issues alongside the relationship and family areas already mentioned. She also supports people dealing with grief, addiction, anger, work or career worries and intimacy difficulties.

Appointments make space to talk through what is happening now and to plan small steps forward. Wendy encourages clear goals and checks progress as therapy continues. To begin, people follow the service signposting to complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session.

How her approaches work in online sessions

Wendy uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in a practical way to help people notice which values matter to them and to try small committed actions that align with those values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, life changes and problems that feel stuck.

She also draws on Client‑Centred Therapy, which means the sessions begin with careful listening. The person is treated as expert in their own life and the counsellor reflects and responds to what the person brings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test small behaviour changes to reduce distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Wendy will discuss different methods and agree together which ideas to try, based on the person's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and methods can be adjusted over time.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions will be delivered. Practical benefits of online appointments include fitting sessions around work or caring duties, easier access if travel is difficult and the option to choose a quieter check‑in that may not need a video connection. Registered or accredited professionals can use these formats to help people keep therapy consistent with daily life.
