About Fay

Fay Wancke uses a client-centred approach to help people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and low self-esteem. She works in the United Kingdom and has three years of professional experience. Fay speaks English and focuses on practical, person-led conversations that build on each person’s strengths.

Fay believes clients know their own stories best. Sessions focus on listening carefully and helping people find their own solutions. She aims to create a calm space where people can talk through what matters and work towards clearer thinking and steadier feelings.

Her work often addresses depression, problems with motivation and confidence, and relationship challenges. Fay also supports people dealing with bereavement and loss, and those facing ongoing stress or anxiety at home or work. She pays attention to how past experiences such as attachment or abandonment can shape current patterns.

Fay’s background includes helping people with chronic health concerns, caregiver stress, body image and the effects of major life changes like divorce or separation. She brings steady, non-judgemental listening and helps people notice and use their strengths in everyday life.

People who choose Fay can expect straightforward, empathetic sessions that prioritise what the client wants to address. To begin, clients follow the site procedure to match with a counsellor and arrange sessions according to the therapist’s schedule.

How client-centred work fits with online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of the process. The therapist listens deeply, reflects what they hear and follows the client’s lead. This approach helps with issues such as anxiety, depression, low confidence and grief by making space for the person to make sense of their own feelings.

Working this way online means the focus is still on the client’s concerns and goals. The counsellor helps people identify what they want to change and supports them to try small steps between sessions. Decisions about pace and focus are made together, so the approach adapts to the person’s needs and preferences.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a working day and fewer journeys to attend appointments. Online work can make shorter check-ins simple and allow conversations from wherever a person is based in the United Kingdom. Please confirm current session options before booking, as the specific formats offered should be checked at the time of arranging sessions. Registered or accredited professionals will help you choose the best way to meet your needs and goals in collaboration with you.
