About Wendy Brook
Wendy Brook is a warm, empathic therapist who brings 24 years of clinical experience to her work supporting people through difficult times. She offers a steady, compassionate presence to help clients make sense of where they are, how they arrived there, and where they want to go next. Wendy works from the belief that many people carry important answers within themselves and benefit from focused support to access those insights and move forward.
Her practice has a strong focus on trauma and abuse in all its forms, whether the distress originated in childhood, adulthood, or both. Wendy understands that trauma is not only a major event but can also be any experience that felt overwhelming or too much to manage at the time. Such experiences commonly contribute to challenges with relationships, anxiety, depression, addiction, anger and other emotional difficulties, and she works with these issues with sensitivity and care.
Wendy takes a preventative, integrative approach and does not view a formal diagnosis as the only route to meaningful change. Instead, she helps clients explore emotional patterns, increase self-understanding and build practical ways to cope and grow. Sessions proceed at each person’s pace, with the therapist walking alongside the client rather than directing the journey.
She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), which is the UK professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists. Outside of her clinical work, Wendy enjoys time with family and friends, long walks with her Labrador, watching horse events and painting with watercolours. She is not currently accepting new clients.
