About Wendy

Wendy Mason is a counsellor with nearly three decades of experience. She offers straightforward support for parents feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or life transitions. Wendy aims to make the first step feel manageable for someone who is worried and tired.

Wendy works with a wide range of concerns that affect day-to-day family life. She helps people facing grief, depression, addictions, and relationship strain. She also supports parents dealing with ADHD, body image, communication problems and the pressures of caregiving.

Background and approach

Her approach draws on several practical ways of working. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and act on them. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to identify and change unhelpful thought patterns.

Attachment-based ideas influence how she thinks about relationship patterns at home. Wendy holds the NCPS credential. She practises from the United Kingdom and runs sessions in English.

She does not work with international clients. Sessions may be by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging according to what suits a parent’s schedule. Costs vary by location and are provided through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on therapist availability.

Online support

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps in that direction even when feelings are hard. It is useful for stress, anxiety and decisions that come with parenting. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments. It can help change daily routines, lower anxiety and reduce low mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what has helped before. Then they will shape sessions collaboratively, adjusting methods as needs change.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different schedules. Video is good for deeper conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat or text messaging can fit into busy days and allow ongoing contact between calls. These options make it easier to fit therapy around school runs, work breaks and busy family life.
