About Wendy
Wendy Fydenkevez is a licensed independent clinical social worker with eight years of experience in social services and clinical practice. She brings a long history of working with diverse people, including members of the LGBTQIA community. Wendy focuses on practical steps people can take to feel steadier and more in control.
She often works with people facing relationship and interpersonal conflicts. That includes struggles with partners, friends, coworkers, and family members. She also helps with anxiety, depression, grief, addiction concerns, and sleep problems that interfere with daily life.
Wendy uses a blend of approaches to match each person's needs. She centers sessions on acceptance and collaboration so clients feel heard and respected. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to notice patterns of thought and behavior, and motivational interviewing to support change.
In sessions she focuses on clear, doable strategies. That might look like identifying unhelpful thoughts, practicing small behavior changes, or mapping steps to improve sleep and daily routines. Conversations also explore personal stories and relationship patterns to find what matters most to the client.
People who choose her often want a straightforward, steady therapist who listens and helps set realistic goals. Wendy encourages a team approach, where both client and therapist shape the plan together.
How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and meeting each person where they are. It helps when someone needs a nonjudgmental space to talk about relationships, grief, or sleep troubles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and offers small experiments and routines to try instead. That approach is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep issues.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Wendy will talk with the client about goals and preferences and then suggest what to try first. That way the plan is a collaboration and can change if something does not fit.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know which online formats she offers. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also allow someone to use phone-only or lower-bandwidth options when that better matches their day. Ask about session length and timing when you schedule to find what best matches your routine.
