Wendy Haynes-Britton

Wendy Haynes-Britton is an Ohio-licensed LPCC with 16 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are struggling with addictions, anger, relationship pain, trauma, and depression. Her approach is direct and compassionate, aimed at helping clients feel heard and understood from the start.

Wendy prioritizes creating an open and nonjudgmental space for people to share their thoughts and feelings. She encourages practical steps alongside emotional processing so clients can notice small changes that matter. Sessions focus on the immediate problems clients bring and on building skills for everyday life.

Her work draws on several evidence-informed approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports clarifying values and taking committed action toward them.

Wendy also uses client-centered techniques to follow each person’s pace and priorities. For relationship concerns she incorporates Gottman Method ideas to improve communication and manage conflict. She adapts methods to fit each person’s needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.

Wendy works with a wide variety of concerns including body image, codependency, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, panic attacks, and multicultural issues. She aims to help people move from coping to living with more calm and purpose.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small steps toward those values. It helps when anger or addiction gets in the way of living the life you want. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical techniques to change them. CBT is useful for depression, panic, and many day-to-day struggles. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skills for managing intense emotions and tolerating distress, which can be helpful for anger and relationship conflict.

Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. Wendy will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as clients make progress or face new challenges.

Confirm the available session options before booking since the biography does not list formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people use video or audio to match their comfort, and the same clinical approaches described above translate into focused skill practice and problem-solving during those sessions.
