Wendy Trudeau

Wendy has worked in a variety of mental health and addiction treatment settings treating people ages 3-99. She obtained her Occupational Therapist (OT) degree and returned to graduate school at the University of Georgia to get her master’s in Social Work. OT’s studied and developed neurobiological (brain based) interventions to help treat mental health clients which served as the foundation for understanding the biological basis for mental health symptoms. In the late 1980’s she became passionate about the new science of trauma and focused on skills to help people heal from traumatic life experiences. Over her career she has explored many types of therapeutic approaches developing an eclectic “tool box” offering clients in integrated individual based therapy experience. She believes in the power of laughter to heal the soul after walking through the tears together.
