About Wendy

Wendy Gray is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in North Carolina who focuses on helping people navigate family dynamics, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.

Background and approach

With 25 years of professional experience, she draws on a range of therapeutic methods to address complex patterns such as abandonment, attachment concerns, blended family challenges, caregiver stress, and difficulties with communication and impulsivity. Her practice emphasizes respectful, sensitive care tailored to each individual's circumstances.

Wendy combines approaches like attachment-based work, cognitive behavioral strategies, motivational interviewing, narrative methods, and solution-focused techniques to build practical skills, increase insight, and foster resilience. She seeks to empower clients by collaborating on goals and creating treatment plans that reflect their values and preferences.

Wendy supports people coping with losses, guilt and shame, domestic violence, and isolation while attending to co-occurring issues that can complicate recovery. She offers sessions in English and provides multiple online formats so that clients can access care in ways that fit their schedules.

Prospective clients begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling based on therapist availability.

Remote approaches that emphasize connection and practical change

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape emotions and behavior; it helps clients explore patterns in close relationships and build more supported ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to shift reactions, which can be useful for anxiety, low self-esteem, and impulsivity. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented method that enhances a person’s own motivation for change by exploring ambivalence and strengthening commitment.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Wendy works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts plans over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy with Wendy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving flexibility to fit sessions into busy lives. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care across schedules and locations while allowing for different modes of interaction depending on comfort level and the goals of therapy.
