About Wendy

Wendy Hunter is an Ohio-licensed LPCC with two decades of clinical experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, ADHD, relationship and family challenges, and a wide range of life transitions.

Background and approach

She has worked in hospitals, stabilization units, community mental health settings, opioid treatment clinics, and independent practice, bringing a broad perspective to counseling. Wendy’s practice also addresses concerns such as compassion fatigue, parenting and fatherhood issues, grief, intimacy-related difficulties, and addictions.

Her counseling style is warm, supportive, validating, and collaborative. She emphasizes a strength-based, client-centered approach that avoids stigmatizing labels and respects each person’s pace and priorities.

Wendy blends formal training in eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy (EMDR) and trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) with other evidence-based techniques to tailor care to individual needs. She frames clients as the experts on their own lives and works alongside them to develop practical, personalized strategies for coping, healing, and growth.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Flexible Online Care



Wendy uses EMDR to help process distressing memories and trauma-related symptoms; this approach involves guided bilateral stimulation paired with recollection work to reduce the emotional charge of traumatic events. She also draws on trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), which combines skills training, cognitive restructuring, and gradual exposure to address trauma, anxiety, and related mood concerns. Both approaches are commonly used to help people manage intrusive memories, fear responses, and the impact of past events on current functioning.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Wendy works together with each client to identify goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what feels most effective and comfortable for the individual, ensuring the plan fits the client's needs and preferences.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which can make scheduling more flexible and reduce travel time. These formats support ongoing work on skills, coping strategies, and processing between sessions while allowing clients to connect from locations that suit them.
