Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Mindfulness techniques are offered for managing intense emotions and building coping skills.

Her approach mixes skill-building with reflective discussion so clients get tools they can use between sessions. She works with a wide range of concerns including grief, parenting stress, ADHD-related challenges, and issues tied to chronic illness.
Her style is direct and practical. She helps clients set clear goals and tests small changes in the weeks between meetings. If someone wants help managing anger, she will work with them to recognize patterns, learn new responses, and track progress over time.
How Wendy's approaches translate to online sessions
Wendy often draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening closely to what matters most to each person and shaping sessions around their priorities. This approach helps when someone wants a respectful conversation about frustrations, relationship patterns, or decisions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to spot unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT works well for anxiety, depression, anger reactions, and work-related stress because it breaks problems into clear steps you can practice between meetings.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, adds concrete tools for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Mindfulness skills are used alongside these methods to help notice bodily signs and slow down before reacting.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Wendy will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She adjusts plans as progress is tracked and as people test new skills in real life.
