About Wendy

Wendy Mason is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has 28 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationships, family concerns, grief, depression, addictions and identity issues. Sessions are conducted in English and focus on practical steps to manage everyday problems.

Wendy uses a mix of approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. She describes therapy as a collaborative process that looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours and tests small changes to see what helps. Her work includes responding to trauma and abuse as well as supporting people with neurodiversity and ADHD-related challenges.

The profile notes experience with domestic violence, sexual assault and coercive control and with a broad range of personal and interpersonal issues such as body image, communication problems, codependency and blended family concerns. Wendy also works with people coping with chronic illness, caregiving strain and complex co-morbidity. She offers couple-focused work and sees adults, young people and children according to the original biography.

Practical techniques, clear explanations and step-by-step planning are emphasised. Wendy aims to help people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and to try alternative responses in everyday life. She encourages straightforward tracking of what changes make a positive difference.

Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. Prospective clients are asked to use the See online therapy options button, complete the short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.

How Wendy uses therapeutic approaches in online sessions

Wendy works with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thought patterns that increase worry or low mood and to test small behavioural changes. CBT sessions focus on practical steps and tracking what does or does not help with everyday problems.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which looks at values and practical actions even when difficult feelings are present. ACT helps people choose actions that fit their priorities rather than getting stuck trying to control inner experience. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to explore patterns in close relationships and to practise new ways of relating that reduce distress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Wendy discusses your goals and preferences and together you decide which methods to try first. That collaborative plan can change as you learn what works better in practice.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Registered or accredited professionals including counsellors and therapists often adapt exercises and worksheets to work well in remote sessions.
