How Wendi’s Approaches Work Online

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current connection patterns. It helps when trust, closeness, or fear of abandonment affect daily life and relationships.

Client-centered therapy puts the person’s experience at the center. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps people find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Wendi will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether to focus on skills training, relationship patterns, trauma work, or a combination of methods.

Online formats offer several practical benefits. Video calls let people use visual cues and deeper conversation while still saving travel time. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter, flexible check-ins during busy days or between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, school, and family demands.
