Wendy David

The majority of my work is online via webcam but I can also offer phone sessions. I am based in Lancaster, UK.  I usually offer day-time sessions during the working week from 10:00 am. Fees are on a sliding scale from £45 to £65. Please see my website for more information.

I’m Wendy and I offer a therapeutic, safe space where we can explore your concerns together. I am UK based and sessions take place online.

There are many reasons why people come for counselling but I think that sometimes we just need a little bit of help. Counselling is a way in which I can support you to work with your concerns in a safe environment. This might mean exploring a particular issue or finding a way forward.

I have a broad range of experience with working with a range of individuals. Some common issues include stress and anxiety, relationships or issues from childhood. I also find that issues come up around the meaning of life.

Sometimes life can be hard. Maybe you are feeling stuck, or feeling confused or get overwhelmed with anxious or self-critical thoughts. Maybe you want to change an unhelpful pattern or make sense of a relationship. Maybe you just need a space where you can talk and explore who you are. I provide a safe and kind space where you can explore what you choose to bring.

I am a qualified psychotherapeutic counsellor and my counselling approach can be described as integrative. I believe in our potential for growth. I initially trained in the person-centred approach, which believes in the potential of everyone and the possibility of growth given the right conditions. Since then I have continued to further my knowledge, which includes training in Jungian approaches, CBT techniques, expressive therapy, Mindfulness and Compassion.

 This means that I can integrate a range of approaches into our sessions, depending on what is needed. For example, some people want to talk in order to work through their concerns and some people find it helpful to make use of creative or mindfulness approaches to help develop more insight or more self-compassion.

I offer therapy sessions online using video conferencing. Sessions are normally weekly for 50 minutes. I offer both short and longer term sessions.

My approach is to be beside you and we will work together with whatever issues you choose to bring, offering respect and understanding. I have found this to be possible whether we are in the same room as each other or many miles away. 

One of the advantages of working online is that we can be anywhere in the UK, however it is important that we are both in private spaces. 

Please contact me by email to make an initial inquiry. Then, if you are interested in arranging sessions, we can have a brief pre-therapy chat by phone about what you would like to get from the sessions.  We can discuss any questions you have. 

Next, we can agree when and how sessions will take place. Please note that I will need contact details with a complete address, for safety reasons.

Please see my website for more information. Enquiries will be treated in confidence.

​

During our first session we can discuss what you would like from therapy in more detail and I will ask some questions to gather some background information. We will also agree a working contract and begin working together.
