About Wendy
Wendy Bennett is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing stress, anxiety, grief and relationship concerns. She helps with self-esteem struggles, parenting pressures, trauma and abuse, and everyday life changes. Wendy takes a calm, non-judgemental approach so clients can talk openly and at their own pace.
Wendy uses a person-centred style which means she listens, reflects and guides rather than directing. She aims to prompt people to find their own answers rather than pressuring them into tasks they do not want to do.
Background and approach
Sessions are relaxed and informal to help people feel comfortable discussing hard topics. Her background includes 15 years as a teacher and four years of counselling practice. The teaching experience contributes to patience, clear communication and an ability to explain things simply.
She also volunteers at a local hospice and has experience supporting people through bereavement. Wendy works with a wide range of issues including intimate partner violence, divorce and separation, ADHD, chronic illness, and addiction. She is an ally of the LGBTQIA+ community and welcomes people from diverse backgrounds.
Clients can expect straightforward conversation, practical emotional support and encouragement to make their own decisions. Outside work she enjoys walking her three dogs, painting and trying to crochet when time allows.

Ways of working Wendy names
Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.
Person-centred support delivered online
Wendy practices client-centred therapy which focuses on understanding each person as an individual. Sessions involve active listening, gentle reflection and questions that help people clarify what matters to them. This approach can be helpful for anxiety, low mood, relationship issues and navigating life changes.Her background supporting bereavement and trauma means she can offer steady, empathetic listening during difficult times. The emphasis is on creating space for clients to find their own solutions, rather than following a rigid programme. Together they explore which ways of working feel most useful and adjust as needed.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls let people see facial cues and maintain a similar feeling to face-to-face sessions. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing or want flexible, ongoing contact between calls. These formats make therapy easier to fit around work, family and mobility needs while keeping the focus on practical emotional support.
