About Wendy
Her approach is straightforward and practical. She listens, then helps people set clear, achievable goals. Sessions emphasize skills you can use between meetings, such as ways to handle intense emotions, improve communication, and build steadier routines. She uses therapy methods grounded in research to guide conversations without jargon.
Wendy works with issues that include trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, ADHD, caregiver stress, chronic illness, body image, and eating or sleeping problems. She also helps people facing adoption and foster care concerns, aging-related transitions, and career or work stress. Her practice pays attention to relationship patterns and common sources of conflict.
In sessions she blends acceptance-based ideas with cognitive strategies and emotion-focused work. That mix aims to help people notice what matters to them, change unhelpful thinking, and repair important relationships. The goal is practical change you can feel day to day.
She practices in Texas and offers services in English. To begin, visitors are asked to use the site start process to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

How these approaches translate to online work
Wendy uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as two central tools. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, meaningful steps toward those values even when emotions are strong. CBT focuses on spotting patterns of thinking that get in the way and practicing new, more helpful skills to change feelings and behavior.She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions grounded in empathy and collaboration. That approach means the therapist follows the client's pace, reflects what they say, and supports their own problem solving rather than directing every step.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Wendy will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and the problems they want to solve, then recommend a mix of methods suited to those needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as therapy progresses.
If you hope to meet online, please confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life, allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce travel time so therapy can happen between errands or work breaks. Licensed professionals can tailor session length and focus to suit practical day-to-day demands.
