Wendy Russell

Wendy has seven years of experience and holds BACP and NCPS credentials, which she lists on her profile. Wendy works with common problems such as anxiety and stress, including social anxiety and worry linked to dating or life transitions.

She also supports people facing low mood, burnout from work, and feelings of emptiness or lack of purpose. Sessions focus on understanding what is happening now and building simple skills to manage day-to-day life.

Relationship concerns are a frequent focus in her work with individuals. She helps people who are navigating breakups, commitment doubts, communication problems, jealousy, infidelity, or uncertainty about starting again.

Wendy also addresses intimacy-related issues and a broad range of relationship-linked topics, including blended family tensions and caregiver strain. Wendy draws on a mix of approaches to suit each person.

This may include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy - CBT for changing unhelpful thinking, mindfulness techniques to reduce stress, psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns, and elements of the Gottman Method to address relationship interactions. She combines these in sessions and sometimes sets short tasks between meetings to practise new skills.

Sessions are offered online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. People can expect clear, down-to-earth conversation and practical steps tailored to their goals and circumstances.
