About Wendy

Wendy Kraszewski is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Florida who integrates a person-centered stance with evidence-based strategies to address relationship strain, grief, career transitions, and life changes.

Background and approach

With 12 years of clinical experience, she focuses on helping clients navigate emotional challenges such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and the complex feelings that come with divorce, loss, or end-of-life concerns. Her approach emphasizes collaboration and acceptance while offering practical tools for coping with mood shifts, anxiety, panic, and post-traumatic stress.

Wendy blends mindful awareness and cognitive-behavioral techniques with emotion-focused methods to support increased self-understanding and improved communication. She creates a nonjudgmental space where clients can explore guilt, shame, control issues, and questions about life purpose.

Available through multiple online formats, Wendy pairs coaching-oriented work with clinical interventions to help clients regain motivation, strengthen confidence, and develop sustainable coping skills. Prospective clients in Florida can expect a thoughtful, adaptable process that centers their goals and preferences.

Approach-driven online therapy tailored to your goals

Wendy brings Internal Family Systems (IFS) to online work by helping clients notice and dialogue with different parts of themselves to reduce internal conflict and increase self-leadership; this can be helpful for issues like shame, self-criticism, and attachment patterns. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to support clients in clarifying values, practicing acceptance of difficult thoughts or feelings, and taking committed action toward meaningful goals. Client-Centered Therapy informs her stance throughout, prioritizing empathic listening and collaborating from the client's own experience to shape the therapeutic path.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process where therapist and client explore which methods fit the client's needs, goals, and preferences. Wendy adapts techniques from these approaches to suit the individual, offering practical tools alongside reflective work so clients can test what feels most helpful.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to attend sessions from home or work, maintain continuity during life transitions, and try varied ways of communicating that support ongoing progress.
