About Wendi

Wendi Lemoine is a licensed clinical social worker who integrates Internal Family Systems with client-centered and evidence-based techniques to support people managing stress, anxiety, trauma, and related concerns.

Background and approach

She brings a decade of clinical experience focused on helping clients build confidence, manage difficult emotions, and find motivation to make meaningful changes. Wendi emphasizes each person's strengths and lived knowledge as central to the therapeutic process, and she approaches challenges with respect for the client's own goals.

Her practice addresses a broad range of issues including depression, addictions, grief, relationship and family difficulties, intimacy-related concerns, eating and sleeping problems, parenting and career transitions, bipolar disorder, and ADHD. Additional areas of focus include caregiver stress, forgiveness work, shame and guilt, panic attacks, self-harm, sexual assault recovery, and social anxiety.

Wendi frames change as collaborative work, offering support and practical strategies while honoring the client's expertise about their own story.

How therapeutic approaches guide online care

Wendi uses Internal Family Systems to help clients understand and relate to different parts of themselves, exploring protective and vulnerable parts to reduce internal conflict and promote self-compassion. She also relies on Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client's own goals and experiences lead the work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is employed when practical skills and behavior changes are needed, offering structured techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts and patterns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Wendi will work with clients to identify which combination of methods fits their goals, preferences, and the challenges they bring, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds and new needs emerge.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase accessibility and scheduling flexibility. These formats allow clients to engage from different locations and at times that fit their lives, while still accessing licensed professionals who use the described therapeutic approaches to support change.
