About Wendy

Wendy Haynes-Britton is an Ohio-licensed counselor who focuses on helping people dealing with addictions, relationship problems, trauma, anger, and depression. She aims to create an open space where clients can speak plainly about their thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment. Wendy presents herself as a steady, supportive presence for people ready to make a change.

Her work draws on several practical therapy methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), client-centered therapy, and the Gottman Method. Those approaches are used to teach coping skills, shift unhelpful thinking, and improve communication. Sessions often involve learning concrete tools and practicing new ways to respond to stress and conflict.

With 16 years of professional experience and the LPCC credential (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor), she has worked through many common and complex concerns. She helps clients face feelings of guilt, shame, and loss of direction while strengthening day-to-day emotional skills. She also addresses issues such as body image, codependency, infidelity, and intellectual disability when they come up in therapy.

Wendy works in Ohio and conducts sessions in English. She encourages people to be honest about their goals so therapy can be tailored to what matters most to them. Taking the first step can feel hard, and she offers steady support through that process.

Therapy approaches and online care that fit your schedule

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking that keep problems going and practicing new, more helpful thoughts and behaviors; it often helps with depression, panic, and mood shifts. The Gottman Method focuses on improving how partners communicate and solve problems and is aimed at strengthening relationship interactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Wendy will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and changing course when needed so sessions stay practical and focused on real-life improvements.

Confirm the available online session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow quick check-ins when problems flare. It also lets people practice skills in their everyday routines and bring real situations into sessions for troubleshooting with a licensed professional.
