For driven, high-achieving women navigating burnout, anxiety and trauma - with a therapist who understands that asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
This space is for women who look capable on the outside but feel like they're running on empty underneath. High-achieving, often high-functioning - and quietly exhausted. Therapy that meets you at your level, built on the most current evidence, delivered with warmth and zero judgement.
These are the women I work best with. If any of this sounds familiar, we should talk.
Burnout & Stress
High-performing women often describe a loop: Do more → Feel momentarily satisfied → Panic that it's still not enough → Do more. We'll untangle where this came from, why it persists, and how to break the cycle. You'll leave each session with practical tools-grounding techniques, boundary frameworks, nervous system resets-that work in real life, not just in the therapy room.
Anxiety & Depression
Women's anxiety is relational-it's about fitting in, belonging, being "good enough." It shows up as perfectionism, people-pleasing, constant self-monitoring. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to interrupt these patterns. You'll learn how to challenge anxious thoughts, manage physical symptoms, and rebuild trust in yourself-with concrete techniques you can use between sessions.
Trauma & PTSD
Trauma rewires how you relate to yourself and others. It can make you smaller, more accommodating, less likely to trust your own knowing. Whether it's explicit trauma or the cumulative weight of never being fully seen or safe, this work restores agency. You'll develop grounding skills, rebuild safety in your body, and practice setting boundaries in real time-not just talk about them.
About Wendy
Dr. Wendy Andersen is a British-qualified psychotherapist, BABCP member, and published researcher in women's mental health. She has trained and worked in some of the world's most prestigious clinics, including practices in Geneva and Marbella. She takes on a limited number of clients to ensure every person receives genuine, continuous, bespoke care-not a rotating schedule of therapists who don't remember your story.
Before becoming a psychotherapist, Wendy worked as a television producer, travelling the world on documentaries-from the frontlines of wars to the hidden networks of drug and people trafficking, to the corridors of political corruption. That work taught her something crucial: performing at an exceptional level, juggling impossible demands, navigating high-stakes environments-none of it guarantees fulfilment, stability, or peace. It taught her that the measurement of success we inherit (achievement, productivity, managing it all) is a broken metric for mental health. It's one of the reasons she now works exclusively with high-achieving women who suspect the same thing.
But that insight-that the metric itself is broken-led her to question something deeper: the science behind it all. For years, women's mental health was understood through research conducted primarily on male participants. Different brains. Different hormones. Different social pressures. Different evolutionary history. The work Wendy brings is grounded in the real science of women's minds and bodies-and the cultural context that's left many high-achieving women feeling chronically inadequate despite remarkable achievement.
Her approach is warm, direct, and research-backed. She works collaboratively-you're not a case file, you're a person she knows deeply. And together, you'll untangle what's driving the inadequacy, the perfectionism, the exhaustion, and build a life where your internal measure of "enough" finally aligns with your actual worth.
