about WENDE

  • Enthusiast for growth, connection and new possibilities

I have truly loved my 25+ years workIng as a clinician, teacher and mentor. I have trained in several types of mainstream and adjunct therapeutic processes, including CBT, play therapy, Sandtray, Soul Collage®️, Internal Family Systems (IFS level 3), EMDR, Tapping, Mindfulness Meditation, Trauma Informed Yoga, Drumming, and Holotropic Breathwork. As I work with you in community with others, you will experience an integrated approach which includes these perspectives. I am recently trained in leading IFS Healing Circle Groups and Soul Collage®️. Each modality brings a different form of transformation and self-awareness which supports your personal growth and healing, as you learn to trust and connect with others.

I value the qualities of curiosity, openness, optimism and trust as we work together.

You could be looking for consultation as a therapist (or life-coach), or personal growth as an individual. As I see it, when we aim toward improving our potential to love and care for others, we also must aim toward loving and understanding ourselves.  We then gain a fresh awareness and are more capable of exploring new ways of being, guided by our true self.  

My specialized and diverse training allows me to offer a unique, comprehensive and holistic approach to self-development which addresses all aspects of your well-being, including the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects of you as a unique individual..

You are not alone.

In my groups it is important to me that you experience connection to your own power and wisdom as you connect with others.I will be your guide showing you the path toward your greatest inner resource of resiliency. As we work together, I want you to experience an authentic and honest  partnership, with humor and meaningful insights. I'd like you to enjoy a creative and caring mentorship in which you feel a sense of belonging as you are seen, heard and understood.


how it started

“IFS changed my life. It continually inspires me to share with others this path of love & transformation.”


I discovered IFS in 2012, practiced, trained and completed L-3 in 4 years, and became certified in 2016. I find it to be a very natural, gentle and effective process for healing trauma and increasing self-love and leadership. As a holistic, psycho-spiritual approach, it has proven to be deeply transformational - bringing a sense of well-being to mind, body and spirit. The compassionate true self is discovered as the ultimate healing force within each of us, which calms, nurtures and guides us toward resiliency and empowered wisdom.

Explore the one compassionate presence that heals and inspires.
