About Fay

Fay Wancke is a counsellor who uses a client-centred approach to help people manage stress, anxiety and depression. She works with people facing relationship strain, grief and low self-esteem, and supports those who want more confidence and motivation. Fay believes clients know their own story and brings a calm, respectful manner to sessions.

With three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom, Fay draws on straightforward conversation and careful listening. She focuses on what matters most to each person and helps them find their own solutions rather than imposing a fixed plan. This approach is practical and paced to the client’s needs.

Fay also works with a range of related concerns, including abandonment, attachment issues, body image, and the emotional impact of illness such as cancer or chronic pain. She supports people dealing with caregiver stress, divorce and separation, and the aftermath of domestic violence. Her work can include talking through communication and commitment problems.

Clients can expect sessions that centre their experience and strengths. Fay encourages small steps that build confidence and reduce overwhelm. She aims to make conversations feel manageable and useful rather than overwhelming.

People considering therapy are invited to reflect on their goals and practical needs before booking. Fay asks new clients to use the site’s matching process to schedule sessions according to her availability.

How client-centred therapy translates to online support

Client-Centred Therapy centres on the person in the room and on their experiences. It involves open listening, gentle reflection and helping people name what matters most to them. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood, relationship worries and the emotional impact of illness or loss.

Fay will work with each person to decide how therapy best fits their needs. Choosing a therapeutic approach is a collaborative process and she will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful before moving forward.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life, for example by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins that suit a busy day, or letting someone choose a quieter time around other commitments. Many people find that having flexible scheduling helps them keep momentum between sessions. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt the client-centred approach to make practical steps feel achievable within a person’s routine.
