Wendy Putt, BACP

Wendy Putt works with people who are feeling overwhelmed by grief, anxiety, stress or life changes. She focuses on helping individuals who feel isolated, stuck or unsure how to move forward. Wendy writes plainly and listens carefully to what matters to each person.

Wendy trained at South Devon College and Devon Counselling College and holds BACP registration, which is listed as BACP. She became a counsellor after experiencing grief and loss herself and uses that personal experience to empathise with others who are struggling.

Her practical aim is to give people space to talk without fear of judgment. Sessions are shaped around each person’s needs, with a steady, warm presence rather than quick fixes. Conversations can cover relationships, self‑esteem, body image, work stress, addictions, and eating concerns among other issues.

Wendy describes herself as an older woman with a long interest in relationships and behaviour. She encourages straightforward talk about emotions and everyday pressures, and she supports people as they work on coping skills, forgiveness, communication and self‑love.

Sessions are available in English and take place online using video calls, phone, live chat or text messaging. The therapist uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time, and the practical steps to start are to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an appointment.

Client-centred care delivered online

Client-Centred Therapy is about making space for the person rather than directing them. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what she hears and helps the person find their own answers. This approach can help with grief, anxiety, low self-esteem and relationship worries.

Wendy’s own experience of loss informs a gentle, steady way of working. Together the counsellor and the person will decide what feels most helpful, adapting the style as needs and goals change. Choosing a therapeutic approach is a shared process and the counsellor will talk through options to find the best fit.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different routines. Video calls let people see facial expression and tone, phone sessions can use less bandwidth and work well for a quick check-in, and messaging or live chat can fit into a busy day for shorter, written exchanges. These formats make counselling more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and other commitments.
