I was at rock bottom when I started therapy with Wnedy. I'm not at the top of the mountain yet, but I know with Wendy's help and guidance I'll reach my peak once again.

More about Wendy

  • 20 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

As an emotional health care provider, I take an integrated care approach when supporting my clients. This approach focuses on whole-person care that ensues the body-mind connection, as well as ensures a trauma informed approach to the client experience. I have been working in the mental health field for over 20 years and have experience in working with depression, anxiety, trauma, life change issues, parenting, transitioned aged youth, ADHD and mood disorders. My clinician skill set includes Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Exposure Therapy, and Parenting Support. I have a Doctorate in Integrated Behavioral Health. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas and serve as a Licensed Supervisor for incoming clinicians.

As a clinician, I believe that the client-counselor relationship is collaborative. My clients privilege me into their lives and are the experts of their experiences who come with strengths that we work to enhance and strengthen together. Embodying the body-mind connection of integrated care, we can prevent mental illness through the avenue of emotional health care in the same way we do our physical health.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Wendy has helped me during some of the hardest moments of my life and I 100% would not be here without her. She always provides me with insightful messages that never force an answer on me.

Wendy made me feel safe to express myself, and she gave me time and space to sit with my feelings. She helped me regain my voice, and improve my relationships with my family and friends. She helped me find me again, and words can never express my appreciation for that.
