About Wendy
Wendy Haynes-Britton is an Ohio Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with 16 years of experience. She works with adults who are struggling with addictions, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, anger, and depression. Wendy focuses on practical steps that help people stop repeating harmful patterns and make clearer decisions about relationships and wellbeing.
Her approach combines evidence-based methods and straightforward conversation. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice painful thoughts without being driven by them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is part of her work for shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance.
Wendy also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions grounded in the client's experience. She pays attention to communication problems, codependency, and issues like infidelity, divorce, and family strain. Sessions often include practical skill-building around setting boundaries and clearer communication.
Over her career she has helped people address body image concerns, guilt and shame, panic attacks, and questions about life purpose or midlife transitions. She applies the Gottman Method elements when relationship dynamics are a central concern. The work is pragmatic and focused on what a person can do differently day to day.
If you are juggling other people’s needs, struggling to say no, or living with another person’s drinking or moods, she can help you talk through next steps and practice different responses.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting controlled by them. It focuses on values and small, consistent actions that move life in a clearer direction, which can be useful for people stuck in people-pleasing patterns or overwhelmed by a partner's behavior.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises to identify unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors, often helping with depression, anxiety, or patterns around substance use.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes skills for handling strong emotions and reducing impulsive reactions. Those emotion-regulation and distress-tolerance tools can help when anger, panic attacks, or relationship crises are frequent.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match goals and preferences and will adjust techniques as progress is seen. Sessions involve clear goals, skill practice, and checking in on what helps between meetings.
Specific online session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people appreciate online therapy because it can fit into a work break, avoid travel time, or allow for a shorter check-in when lives are busy. Talk with the therapist about practical arrangements that make consistent attendance easier.
