About Wendy Foote

Wendy Foote is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Illinois with 18 years of professional experience. She focuses on supporting people who have experienced trauma, who face intimacy-related challenges, and who struggle with eating disorders, offering steady guidance through difficult transitions and painful memories.

Wendy aims to cultivate an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored honestly. She believes that facing emotional pain requires courage and, at times, outside support, and she works alongside clients to build stronger coping skills and a greater sense of emotional security. Progress is viewed as a process that often takes time and consistent effort, and she helps clients practice strategies that support more effective day-to-day living.

Wendy emphasizes collaborative work and invites clients who are ready to engage in meaningful change. She is not the right fit for someone seeking only brief venting about a bad day; instead she partners with those prepared to do the deeper work needed to create lasting impact in their lives.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Wendy Foote draws on evidence-informed methods to guide her work, adapting them to online formats when appropriate. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify their values and learn practical ways to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to meaningful action - it can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns through practical exercises, which can help with mood concerns, anxiety, and coping skills. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and a collaborative relationship, creating space for clients to explore their experiences and build self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process, and Wendy works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors interventions and adjusts the plan over time based on what is most helpful for the client.

Online sessions - whether by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to access help from home or elsewhere. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling and allow licensed professionals to deliver consistent care in ways that match a client’s communication style and daily routine.
