About Wendy
Wendy Bennett is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people working through depression and related concerns. She creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what matters to them. Her manner is relaxed and informal so conversations can feel natural and unforced.
Wendy uses a person-centred style that focuses on the client's own priorities. She listens, reflects and asks gentle questions rather than setting homework or pushing tasks you are not ready for.
Background and approach
That approach is aimed at helping clients make their own decisions and find practical ways forward. She has four years' experience as a counsellor and also volunteers at a local hospice, supporting people with bereavement. Before training as a counsellor she spent 15 years teaching, which she says gave her a wide understanding of how people respond to stress and life change.
Wendy works with a broad range of concerns including anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, low self-esteem, parenting strains, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, and ADHD alongside depression. She also offers support around specific issues such as attachment, body image, chronic illness, caregiver stress and substance concerns. Outside of work she enjoys walking her three dogs, painting and trying to crochet in spare moments.
She identifies as an ally of the LGBTQIA+ community and aims to offer a compassionate, accepting space for people from diverse backgrounds.

Approaches Wendy lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Wendy uses a gentle, non-directive style so the choice of tools and pace is set together. She will discuss which ways of working might suit your needs and preferences and adjust as you go. Figuring out the right fit is a shared process rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to make access simpler. Video calls are good for a fuller face-to-face feel, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat offers quicker check-ins and text messaging can suit shorter, ongoing contact. These options aim to make it easier to fit counselling into work, caregiving or other commitments while keeping sessions straightforward and flexible.
