Wendy Putt, BACP

Wendy Putt trained at South Devon College and Devon Counselling College and works as a counsellor with a BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which signals her professional affiliation. She decided to pursue therapy after experiencing grief and loss herself, and that personal perspective informs a compassionate approach to supporting others who feel overwhelmed by emotion.

As an older woman with a lifelong interest in relationships and human behaviour, she focuses on creating an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, self-esteem concerns and the many challenges that life can bring. Her practice addresses a wide range of issues including trauma and abuse, grief, addiction, eating and intimacy-related concerns, anger, career questions and coping with life changes.

Wendy works collaboratively with people navigating isolation, panic, guilt and shame, body image and communication problems, helping them find clarity and practical ways to move forward. She recognises that taking the first step toward a more fulfilling life takes courage, and she offers steady support while clients talk through what matters most to them. If everyday living feels harder than it used to or loss has left you feeling alone, she invites you to reach out for support.

Client-Centered Support Delivered Through Online Sessions

Client-Centered Therapy is at the heart of Wendy's practice. This approach focuses on listening deeply and reflecting back what a person is experiencing, creating space for clients to explore feelings and values at their own pace. It is especially helpful for people working through grief, relationship issues, self-esteem concerns and major life transitions because it prioritises the client's perspective and personal meaning.

Wendy uses a gentle, person-focused style that encourages self-exploration and emotional processing. Rather than directing the course of therapy, she supports clients to identify their own goals and strengths, which can be useful for addressing anxiety, coping with change, and rebuilding confidence.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process and Wendy works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals and preferences. She adapts the way she works as the relationship develops so the approach remains helpful and relevant.

Online therapy with Wendy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules and for people who prefer remote access. These options make it easier to attend sessions from home, during work breaks or while travelling, helping clients maintain continuity of care and practical access to support.
