Sailing Day
Good rapport between a client and his/her therapist is the best predictor of a successful outcome. Wendy believes that every person has a good heart regardless of how life has treated them. She takes the time to understand each person and find a pathway that suits them well. Having said that Wendy also believes it is important to find workable solutions quite quickly so that people are not spending excessive time in therapy. She focuses on getting some immediate wins for the clients so that they quickly start to feel in charge of their lives again. Therapy continues until the client feels he/she is ready to manage on his/her own.
Wendy uses an eclectic mix of therapies, depending on what the client finds comfortable and responds well to. These include:
- Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT)
- Interpersonal Therapy (IPT)
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
- Brief Solution Focused Therapy
- Psychodynamic Techniques
- Dream Analysis
- Mindfulness
- Play Therapy
