Wendy Hooker |
registered, experienced, professionalI've been very privileged to have worked with such a skilled, sensitive and understanding therapist. This has been a very valuable experience for me and has helped me at a time when I was experiencing many changes and challenges. After my counselling with Wendy, I feel I understand myself better and can now make different decisions. I feel more empowered . |
Why I do what I do
I am a registered, professional and experienced psychotherapist practising for over 15 years both privately and in the health care sector.
I provide therapy from an integrative stand point which means I incorporate all three of the major psychotherapeutic approaches depending on an individual's need. These are Humanistic, Cognitive Behavioural and Psychodynamic.
I have substantial experience working in the mental health field and worked as a senior counsellor within IAPT (Improving Access to Psychological Therapies), the NHS mental health service.
Currently, alongside my private practice, I work part-time for the NHS in a Physical Health Psychology Service working with people experiencing and affected by Cancer and other life limiting illnesses.
In addition I have run psycho-educational groups teaching people how to increase positive mental health, build emotional resilience and delivered well-being workshops at conferences.
I believe in the importance of working from an authentic and transparent standpoint connecting with people on a meaningful level, with a genuine understanding of some of the difficulties they may be facing. My therapeutic practice focuses on enabling you to work through the issues that may be holding you back and move towards a brighter future.
If you are facing difficulties in your life at the moment and unsure how to move forward or simply need someone to walk beside you whilst we figure things out together, please do get in touch or see my website for further information.
