About Wendy

Wendy Mayfield BACP is a counsellor who focuses on helping people handle stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties and the after-effects of trauma and abuse. She offers straightforward, compassionate support for depression, anger, grief, self‑esteem and life transitions. Wendy aims to help people feel more confident, resilient and clear about what they need next.

Wendy uses a mix of approaches. She listens first and helps people make sense of their experiences. Conversations look at how past attachments shape present relationships and how thoughts and behaviours keep problems going.

Background and approach

Practical strategies and gentle reflection are used together so sessions are both useful and humane. Her work includes support for parenting concerns, eating and body image worries, ADHD and issues such as abandonment or codependency. She also helps people who are coping with major life events, caregiver stress or dissociation.

Sessions are intended to suit the pace each person needs, whether that is problem solving or exploring deeper emotions. Wendy offers counselling in the United Kingdom and accepts international clients. Sessions are available online and in person, using formats that include video calls, phone, live chat and text messaging.

She works in an ethical, respectful and non-judgemental way. People typically begin with a short discussion about what they want to change. From there Wendy and the client agree practical steps and goals, returning to them as needed.

Her aim is steady, manageable progress rather than quick fixes.

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.

How Wendy uses different approaches online

Wendy draws on attachment‑based work to look at how early relationships influence current bonds and feelings. This approach helps when relationship patterns, commitment worries or attachment issues make life harder. She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT to spot unhelpful thinking and try out different behaviours. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood and managing day‑to‑day stress.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Wendy discusses goals and preferences in early sessions and adapts methods as needed. This is a collaborative process where the client and counsellor decide which ideas to keep and which to change over time.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging, which give flexible ways to meet. Video calls suit deeper conversations and seeing each other, phone sessions work when bandwidth or movement is an issue, live chat can be a shorter check‑in, and messaging helps when someone prefers written reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, travel or family life while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
