About Wendy

Wendy Cummins is a counsellor who works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship worries, grief and low self-esteem. She also helps with intimacy-related issues, anger, depression and coping with life changes. Wendy mentions particular focus on infidelity, jealousy and postpartum depression.

Wendy practises from a psychodynamic perspective and aims to create a warm, non-judgemental space. She listens and offers regular time to talk. She describes weekly 45 minute video sessions as her usual way of building a trusting therapy relationship.

In sessions she pays attention to emotions and repeated patterns of behaviour. Wendy will help talk through what keeps causing the same problems. She looks at the beliefs people hold about themselves and how those shape relationships and day-to-day life.

Wendy prefers working in a steady, scheduled way so small changes can become habits. The work is conversational and reflective, with encouragement to try practical adjustments between sessions. She presents therapy as a partnership where progress grows over time.

Wendy holds a BACP credential, which is recorded as BACP. She has four years of experience as a counsellor in the United Kingdom and conducts her practice in English. To begin she asks people to use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How Wendy’s approaches fit online therapy

Wendy integrates psychodynamic listening with client-focused, attachment-aware thinking. Psychodynamic work looks at emotional patterns and how past experiences shape current feelings, which can help with recurring relationship problems and persistent low mood. Attachment-based ideas highlight how people form bonds and react when those bonds feel threatened, useful for intimacy issues, jealousy and infidelity.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Wendy approaches this collaboratively and will talk with the person about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which ideas to focus on and adjust the way they work as progress develops.

Wendy states that she usually schedules regular 45 minute video sessions as the way she builds a therapy relationship. If you are considering online therapy with her, confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed, while still offering a consistent, ongoing space to talk and reflect.
