About Wendy
Wendy Duncan Kithcart is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in North Carolina with 18 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, family conflict, trauma and parenting concerns. She also works with depression, addictions, relationship troubles, grief, anger, and other common mental health struggles.
Wendy focuses on practical conversations that address what people are living with now. Sessions tend to look at daily routines, communication with others, coping strategies, and steps a person can try between meetings. She draws on several approaches to match what each person needs in the moment.
Her background includes long experience supporting people through major life changes and complex histories. That includes work related to abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment issues, aging and geriatric concerns, chronic illness and pain, and family of origin problems. She also addresses issues such as codependency, domestic violence, and disruptive mood concerns.
Therapeutic methods she uses include client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, existential reflection, and motivational interviewing. Those approaches are used to clarify goals, build practical skills, and reduce distress between sessions.
Wendy conducts sessions in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
BHow sessions work
How Wendy uses practical approaches in online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps people clarify what they want from therapy and set goals in their own words.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. It offers concrete tools to test unhelpful thoughts and try different actions to reduce anxiety or depression.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) supplies skills for managing strong emotions and improving coping. It can help with anger, mood swings, relationship stress, and crises that keep repeating.
Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. Wendy will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
The practical advantages of online sessions include fitting meetings into busy schedules, shorter check-ins when needed, and easier access from different locations. The profile does not list specific session formats here, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions are used to focus on daily routines, communication skills, coping strategies, and steps to practice between meetings.
