WENDY SUMMERS DipHIPC UKCP Registered, PG DipCouns MBACP, DipCOT

I am a skilled, experienced and compassionate Clinically Registered Psychotherapist (with United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy), Psychotherapeutic Counsellor (Registered with British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy), Supervisor and qualified Occupational Therapist (COT).

I have a special interest in Gestalt therapy, with over 30 years experience as a therapist, in a wide range of settings (National Health Service/Private Practice), including 17 years within the speciality of long- term pain management. I have worked with hundreds of clients in supervised clinical practice.

My style is active and involved. I enjoy working in emotional depth. I communicate with clients in a clear and direct way, in a spirit of authenticity and kindness. I greatly value warmth, creativity and imagination. I am passionate about my work and have a social conscience.

I endeavour to ‘live in good faith with myself’ (being true to myself) whilst enjoying supporting others to do the same. I have enjoyed a full and rich life myself and have encountered many significant challenges along the way! I have a wealth of life experience to draw upon.

'We must decide if we want to stay where we are or if we want to get to the other side of pain and live a full and purposeful life. That’s how you find the joy' (G Aldred).

Couples Therapy: I provide therapeutic help to facilitate you and your partner to: resolve unfinished conflicts in a healthy and respectful way, fully express your unmet needs, dreams and desires to each other. Gain deeper awareness around the fundamental dynamics within your relationship.

Availability: Weekdays, evenings, Saturdays. I offer therapy in: Frome, Trowbridge and Bradford on Avon.
