Welcome. I am Dr Wendy Isenwater
"Wendy was great with my 10-year old daughter, who was having night-time anxieties and was unable to sleep on her own. She had a developed a lot of (obsessive) rituals at bedtime to cope, but these were also worrying us. In just a few CBT sessions, Wendy helped her understand her worries, and taught her how to tackle them. The sessions were a lot of fun, and my daughter is now able to sleep peacefully in her room, most of the time!"

Consultant Clinical Psychologist...
Specialist in working with Children, Teenagers and Families
As children and teenagers go through different stages of development, family life can be emotionally challenging. Whilst most of these stages are manageable, and part of life, sometimes it becomes too much and can cause a great deal of distress.
I have worked with hundreds of families and have specialist training to determine when extra support is needed and what that might look like. If a change is required, I will work with you and provide you with specialist support to help you all move forward.
I regularly provide teaching, training and consultation to organisations, companies, parent groups and schools on mental health, neurodiversity and parenting. I also supervise other Clinical and Counselling Psychologists.
“We feel so grateful for the support that Wendy has offered to our son and to us as parents. He needed help managing his anxiety and OCD but as a teenage boy was hugely reluctant to go and talk about his feelings. After one visit he committed to the process and it has made an enormous difference. As parents, we have felt safe and held and supported and so grateful to have had Wendy's expert guidance.”
