About Wendy

Wendy Trickett is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has nine years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with adults who are facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family matters and life changes. Her practice also covers grief, addiction concerns and self-esteem struggles.

Wendy bases her work on a client-centred approach. She treats the person in front of her as the expert on their own life and listens first. That means sessions often begin with time to speak and be heard, and then she and the client look at small, practical steps to manage problems.

She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to help people notice patterns of thinking that keep them stuck. She also uses acceptance and commitment therapy ideas to help people decide what matters to them and act on those values. Mindfulness and narrative approaches are used where helpful to change how someone relates to difficult thoughts and memories.

Wendy often meets people dealing with parenting stress, communication problems, divorce and blended family issues. She also supports people working through trauma, anger, addiction and career worries. Sessions are straightforward and focused on what the client wants to change or understand.

People who choose Wendy can expect a calm, conversational style and practical suggestions to try between meetings. She encourages clear goals and checks progress as therapy continues. To start, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Wendy uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people identify what matters to them and take small meaningful steps toward those values. ACT often helps when someone feels stuck or unclear about priorities. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to spot unhelpful thinking and try practical alternatives that ease anxiety or low mood. Client-Centred Therapy is central to her practice and shapes how she listens and responds in sessions, prioritising the person's own perspective and choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Wendy will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and decide together which methods to try. That collaborative process means the plan can change as the client notices what helps.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Registered or accredited professionals offering online sessions generally use these practical advantages to help clients keep therapy manageable alongside family and work commitments.
