About Wendy
Wendy Fydenkevez is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Massachusetts with eight years of experience. She works with adults facing anxiety, depression, anger, relationship strain, addiction concerns, and life transitions. Her background includes extensive social service work and time supporting people from the LGBT community.
Wendy focuses on interpersonal conflict and its ripple effects. That includes tension with partners, friends, coworkers, and family members, or conflict people carry inside themselves. She will talk through how those conflicts link to sleep, substance use, self-esteem, or ongoing worry.
Her approach combines a client-centered stance with practical, evidence-informed tools. Wendy uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that fuel anger or anxiety. She also draws on mindfulness strategies to help people notice stress and respond differently.
Narrative and psychodynamic ideas appear in sessions too, especially when exploring how past relationships shape current reactions. Motivational interviewing is used when someone is considering change around substance use or other habits. Sessions aim to be collaborative and straightforward, with clear steps to try between meetings.
People who want to address anger, improve communication, manage stress, or work through grief or major life changes may find Wendy's mix of talk-based exploration and practical skills useful. Prospective clients are encouraged to follow the site's process to see if her style fits their needs.
How sessions work
How Wendy Uses Therapy Approaches Online
Wendy commonly blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness practices. Client-centered work means she listens for each person’s priorities and builds a collaborative plan. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying thinking and behavior patterns that keep anger or anxiety going and testing small changes. Mindfulness practices help people notice sensations and urges in the moment so they can choose a different response.Choosing an approach is part of the work together. Wendy will review goals, past attempts, and personal preferences, then suggest starting steps. The plan can shift over time as progress or obstacles become clear, and decisions about techniques are made together rather than imposed.
