About Wendy

Wendy Trickett is a counsellor based in the North of England with nine years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, and parenting difficulties. She also supports those dealing with grief, addiction, low self-esteem and life changes.

Wendy practices using person-centred ideas, which start from the view that clients know their own lives best. She helps people notice the strengths they already have and use them to move through difficult moments.

Background and approach

Sessions aim to be straightforward and practical, with space to reflect and plan small steps forward. Her approach also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to help change unhelpful thinking and habits. Mindfulness practices are used to build calm and focus when emotions feel overwhelming.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and narrative methods are included to help people clarify values and reframe difficult stories. People come to Wendy for help with anger, intimacy issues, eating or sleeping problems, career stress, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses practical family matters such as blended family challenges, communication breakdowns and caregiver stress.

Her work includes support around divorce and separation, domestic violence, and substance problems. Wendy offers sessions in English and accepts clients from outside the UK. She aims to create a steady, respectful space where people can talk honestly, try different approaches, and build routines that fit their daily life.

How Wendy’s approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters most and take small actions that match their values, even when difficult feelings are present. In practice this can help with anxiety, low mood and parenting stress. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises a respectful, non-judgemental listening approach where the person’s own experience guides the work and helps build confidence and clarity.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) provides practical tools to spot unhelpful thoughts and change routines that keep problems going. It is useful for worry, sleep issues, anger and many everyday difficulties. Wendy blends these methods so sessions are both reflective and action-oriented, and together the client and therapist decide what fits best for the situation.

Online sessions let people access therapy with more flexibility. Video calls recreate a face-to-face conversation, phone sessions need less bandwidth, live chat can suit someone who prefers typing, and text messaging is useful for brief check-ins or when a quick message helps between sessions. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and homework for each format to make sure the work continues between appointments.
