Hello, I'm Wendy.

I have over 40 year's experience as a psychologist, and have supported many many people as they find their way through the challenges of life. In addition to my study and professional training in many approaches and theories, I have the learnings from my own personal experience.

It's now more than 30 years since I faced a shock diagnosis - Stage IV Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma!

That was a turning point in my life. I knew that I needed to change, but I didn't know what or how?

I had pent-up feelings of guilt, anger and fear from past events. I felt out of control of my life, a victim, and pretty sorry for myself struggling as a single mother. I blamed myself for choices I had made in the past. I ate poorly, and didn't take much care of myself....No wonder my immune system gave up!

As so often happens, when we decide things must change, the way forward appears.....I stopped work, read lots of books, and was recommended to join a support group with Petrea King.

For me the philosophy and tools I learned from Petrea King at the Quest for Life Centre were pivotal. They provided me with the mindset and practical tools to be more in control. I got help to deal with the guilt, hurt, fear and helplessness leftover from my past. I used visualisation while receiving chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Meditation gave me great peace of mind. I improved my nutrition, and rested lots. These life transforming learnings continue to guide my life. It was a gift indeed!

My professional work supporting those living with cancer and other life traumas is guided by Petrea King's teachings and philosophy in Attitudinal Healing.

Attitudinal Healing offers a way of looking at your situation with a different mindset. It offers you evidence based strategies and practical educational tools to experience peace of mind, a sense of control over your predicament, and a map to take action to heal.... even in the midst of your traumatic circumstances.

Does this resonate with you?
