About Wendy
Counsellor Wendy Cummins is a BACP member with four years' experience, based in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, low self-esteem, and depression. Her profile also lists help for issues such as intimacy concerns, anger, coping with life changes, infidelity, jealousy and postpartum depression.
Wendy offers short, regular sessions to help people talk through what is troubling them. She focuses on how feelings and repeated patterns affect daily life. Conversations are client-led and aim to make difficult thoughts easier to name and discuss.
Her approach draws from psychodynamic ideas alongside attachment-based thinking. This means she pays attention to long-standing emotional patterns and how early relationships can shape current reactions. She also uses client-centred listening and mindfulness practices to help people notice their feelings without judgement.
Wendy refers to elements of Jungian thinking when exploring personal meaning and recurring themes in a person’s life. That can be useful for people who want to understand patterns rather than only manage symptoms.
Sessions are arranged on a regular schedule so progress can be tracked over time. She asks new enquirers to complete a short matching questionnaire and then book a first session. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
Wendy works in English and does not accept international clients. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.
How her therapeutic approaches work in online counselling
Wendy draws on psychodynamic and attachment-based ideas and she uses client-centred listening and mindfulness in online work. Psychodynamic work looks at recurring feelings and relationships from the past and how they affect the present; it can help when someone wants to understand repeating patterns. Attachment-based work focuses on how early bonds shape expectations and behaviour in relationships; it can be useful for intimacy, jealousy and relationship concerns. Client-centred listening gives the person space to lead the conversation while the counsellor reflects what is said and helps clarify feelings.Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. Wendy will talk it through with the client and agree what fits best based on their needs, goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as the person learns more about their patterns and what helps.
The practical benefits of online counselling include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Sessions are arranged on a regular schedule so they can sit alongside work, childcare or study. The site asks people to confirm current session options before booking so clients know the available formats and how to schedule their first appointment.
