Wendy Cummins, BACP

Wendy Cummins helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, grief and low self-esteem. She also supports those facing intimacy concerns, anger, depression, and the strain of life changes. Wendy works with specific issues such as infidelity, jealousy and postpartum depression. She is named at the start so readers know who they are contacting. Wendy uses a psychodynamic approach that looks at recurring emotional patterns and how they shape daily life. She creates a warm, non-judgemental space and listens carefully to what matters to each person. Sessions are usually forty-five minutes and typically held weekly by video call so a steady relationship can grow. Her way of working is conversational and gentle. She helps people notice feelings and behaviours that repeat over time. That often leads to small, manageable changes rather than sudden upheaval. Wendy blends psychodynamic ideas with attachment and mindfulness perspectives to understand both past patterns and present relationships. Jungian themes may be used to explore personal meaning and inner imagery when relevant. The client-centred stance keeps the person’s experience at the heart of each session. Wendy is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has four years of professional experience in counselling practice. Sessions are in English and provided from the United Kingdom, with online options available via scheduled video calls and other formats.

How attachment and psychodynamic ideas work online

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current feelings and expectations. Online sessions can help people recognise patterns in their close relationships and try new ways of relating.

Psychodynamic therapy looks at recurring thoughts, emotions and behaviours and how they link to past experiences. Used online, it supports people to uncover patterns that keep them stuck and to make gradual changes over time.

Mindfulness therapy helps people notice the present moment without judgement and can reduce reactivity to stress and strong emotion. Brief mindfulness practices can be used during sessions to build calm and clearer thinking.

Choosing a therapeutic approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt methods as the work progresses. That collaborative planning continues as the relationship develops.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people see facial cues and build a steady relationship, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer written reflection or need support between calls. Registered or accredited professionals can use these formats to make therapy more accessible around work, childcare and daily life.
