Wendy Summers

United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy Registered Clinical Psychotherapist & Psychotherapeutic Counsellor. I have over 30 years experience of working therapeutically with individuals, couples and groups within a broad range of clinical settings, including the National Health Service and in private practice.

Experienced supervisor of both qualified and trainee counsellors & psychotherapists. 17 years of recent specialist experience working as a therapist in the field of long term pain (NHS). 

I have worked with hundreds of therapy clients. I enjoy relational work and want to attract couples as well as individual clients/supervisees into my practice.

My style is active, involved, influenced by Gestalt Therapy. I value authenticity and kindness, acceptance and respect, creativity and imagination in my work. I provide time limited and long-term face-to-face counselling/psychotherapy, telephone and internet counselling.

Effective therapy increases awareness of ourselves and others, and encourages self-valuing and self-support. 

With couples, I facilitate resolution of unfinished conflicts in a healthy and respectful way; expression of unmet needs, hopes and desires to each other; and the gaining of deeper awareness around the fundamental dynamics within a relationship. I aim to help each of you to achieve the freedom to be who you are, whilst also exploring whether it is possible for you both to find a way towards a more deeply satisfying, authentic relationship.
