She works with individuals facing trauma, grief, sleep problems, parenting strain, and career pressures. Her approach aims to help people feel steadier and more able to manage day-to-day challenges.
Wendi uses practical, goal-oriented methods to address upsetting thoughts and behaviors.

Solution-Focused and Trauma-Focused methods are also part of her practice when the situation calls for them.

She has experience helping those who face addiction, anger, or high workplace demands. That experience informs how she tailors sessions to each person’s situation.

Wendi pays attention to how past experiences shape present reactions and to small day-to-day shifts that build resilience.
