"We are very grateful for all the kindness, patience and advice."

Rewellness Counselling has helped my son enormously. He immediately connected with our counsellor who used creative techniques to allow my son to express himself. Throughout the sessions she taught him different strategies to help him learn to cope in difficult situations. During the sessions my son was also taught how to use his own strength to become more confident and at peace with himself. We both found counselling very beneficial and he looked forward to seeing his counsellor. We are very grateful for all the kindness, patience and advice.

" I had seen a few counsellors before coming here and none could compare."

Amazing patients and understanding. I felt so comfortable and supported. I had seen a few counsellors before coming here and none could compare. At ReWellness Counseling i felt encoraged and given help to get back on my feet again. I gained new understanding on my life experiences and new perspectives that i would not have gained without the help of my counsellor. I found someone i could trust and would feel safe to talk to. I would recomend to anyone in need.

"I would highly recommend. Very friendly and professional."

My daughter was going through a really difficult time with friendship issues and low self esteem. Donna really helped her to find a way of working through her problems in a more positive way.
I would highly recommend. Very friendly and professional.

"She’s back to my beautiful, smiley , happy baby girl. I will always and forever be so grateful !"

I would like to thank Wendy so much for the love and care she has given my little girl on her path towards becoming a confident and happy being once more . Lockdown and a new baby brother in the mix was tough and unfortunately my little girl began to struggle with her anger , confidence and emotions. Wendy has held my daughters hand , Maisie followed with total ease and has really opened up to allow her mind to heal. After 9/10 weeks Maisie is finding ways to deal with any angers and emotions. She’s back to my beautiful, smiley , happy baby girl and is on the perfect path . I will always and forever be so grateful !

"My daughter has gone from being an anxious emotional wreck to her usual bubbly happy self!"

I honestly honestly cannot thank Wendy enough for the help and time she put in with my daughter!
I wouldn’t know where we would have been without the help and support!
My daughter has gone from being a anxious emotional wreck to being her usual bubbly happy self!
Thank you so much rewellness!

"the commitment and genuine care for others is something special"

Really is the most wonderful service for adults & children alike. I am unable to quite put into words the work Donna has done, the commitment and genuine care for others is something special. If you are lucky enough to experience the service that Donna provides treasure it, because it really is top quality. ReWellness is professional, empathetic, comforting and safe space where you are validated and progress is made. Can’t thank Donna enough for everything, if we could keep her forever on tap that would be great. Highly recommended.

"Kind, professional, compassionate, non-judgmental."

I honestly can’t praise Wendy enough.
Kind, professional, compassionate, non-judgmental. Understanding of our family’s needs. Wendy really seems to understand how teens think. My teen appreciated just being able to open up, to be able to talk to someone who listened and not only wanted to help, but could.
Thank you so much.

"It is lovely to see her smiling again."

Since my daughter started seeing Wendy at Rewellness, her depression and anxiety has become much more manageable and she has begun to find more positive ways to cope with negative feelings. She is always happy to go into her sessions and we have seen a huge difference in her. It is lovely to see her smiling again.

"Thank you, if in doubt, give it a try. It really does help!"

After struggling to know where to turn or what to do next after hitting numerous brick walls with my GP. I came across Wendy, my son has been visiting Wendy since around June 2020, we are now coming to the end of our session. My son has throughly enjoyed his time with Wendy and has developed many coping skills for his anxiety- which feels amazing for my son and equally me as his mum! Thank you, if in doubt, give it a try. It really does help!

"We now feel she has the confidence and the tools to manage going forward."

Wendy has been amazing. From the very beginning she took the time to listen and understand our daughter’s needs and we noticed a difference even after the first session. She was always happy to go and see Wendy and would come out of her sessions with a spring in her step. We now feel she has the confidence and the tools to manage going forward. Thank you again Wendy.

"Written words aren’t enough to show how much I appreciate your help and how it’s changed my sons life."

I cannot recommend this company enough. The care and work that my sons therapist put in was above and beyond. I’m honestly so overwhelmed writing this review. Written words aren’t enough to show how much I appreciate your help and how it’s changed my sons life.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

"The sessions have made such a difference to us as a family unit and we couldn’t recommend the service enough"

My daughter hugely benefitted from seeing Wendy. She was advised on coping strategies to manage her issues and worries which have been achievable and do-able. As a result we have a happier less anxious child. The sessions have made such a difference to us as a family unit and we couldn’t recommend the service enough.

"I feel like my old self again! Thankyou so much :)"

Donna is very patient and friendly and has helped me so much with finding myself again after heavy relationship losses. Donna also helped to give me methods to cope with anxiety and I feel like my old self again! Thankyou so much 🙂

"we recommend them with all our strength, it's really worth everything"

Donna is amazing the workshops she has done with our daughter are simply indescribable we are extremely happy that we found them we recommend them with all our strength, it’s really worth everything.

"such a wonderful positive experience for my son and our family as a whole."

Visiting Wendy has been such a wonderful positive experience for my son and our family as a whole. She immediately established a lovely, kind and trusting bond with him and he has always looked forward to his time with her. He has felt confident to share many things that were troubling him and formed great techniques to manage his emotions. He is so much better equipped to deal with what life brings now. I cannot recommend this service more highly!

"Previous therapy didn’t seem to have much of an impact and we needed a different approach."

We highly recommend using ReWellness counselling for children. We brought our 15 year old daughter to work with Wendy as she had been struggling with increasing anxiety (stemming from various past trauma and potential additional needs). Previous therapy didn’t seem to have much of an impact and we needed a different approach. Our doctor recommended Wendy by name following other patients positive feedback and I’m glad we listened. She is a kind, non-judgemental and compassionate lady who has additional support from her wonderful therapy dog, Luna. Our daughter looks forward to her sessions, often talking about how she feels calm and understood after each one. She is more confident in opening up to us and has even started making plans with friends. Wendy has gone above and beyond, offering advice on where to access additional information and support. Thank you Wendy for helping our daughter believe she can have a positive future.

"Such a vital service for children’s mental health and outstanding in what they do."

I cannot recommend ReWellness Counselling enough. I took my 7 year old son to see Wendy when he started to become very worried and anxious about certain events that where happening in his life. Wendy gave my son a safe place to talk and be heard. This in turn allowed my child to process what was happening. He was given tools by the therapist to use to deal with things that were causing him worries.
I will definately use ReWellness again. Such a vital service for children’s mental health and one that is outstanding in what they do.

"We would highly recommend Wendy to any one in need, as she will certainly go above and beyond."

My stepson / son has been seeing Wendy for a few months now and we couldn’t ask for a better therapist. Wendy has worked wonders and has truly given him the confidence to move forward with his life. We would highly recommend Wendy to any one in need, as she will certainly go above and beyond.

"Donna is a hug in human form and my daughter and I both feel very lucky that we found her."

My daughter has been seeing Donna for the past 6 weeks. She has really helped my daughter feel validated and supported throughout her therapy. My daughter goes in with a smile on her face and comes out energised. Donna is a hug in human form and my daughter and I both feel very lucky that we found her.

"The difference in a few weeks has made a significant positive impact"

Donna has been an incredible help to my teenage daughter. She has helped give coping tactics, meditation, breathing exercises, a place to feel secure enough to open up. The difference in a few weeks has made a significant positive impact

"In just a few sessions, he was exuding more self confidence."

Wendy was amazing with my 8 year old son who struggles a bit with anxiety and confidence issues. He truly looked forward to his therapy sessions every week and found Wendy very helpful and easy to speak to. In just a few sessions, he was exuding more self confidence.

"It definitely has boosted his confidence in speaking more than usual and opening up more to talk about his worries."

Since it was our first experience with counselling, my son enjoyed every session with Wendy, without hesitation or refusal. It definitely has boosted his confidence in speaking more than usual and opening up more to talk about his worries. I believe it also helped with his night terrors which he was having for months. He also had surprises he achieved after each goal which made him more amused. Wendy has been supportive and helped us through the issues we were experiencing. She is truthfully a very experienced and remarkable person.

"Tried other counselling previously but did not help. So glad we found them."

Absolutely amazing! Did wonders for my 13 year old suffering with anxiety and depression. Donna is a really lovely lady, both myself and my daughter cannot thank her enough! Tried other counselling previously but did not help. So glad we found them.

"I would highly recommend her service to any child and parents who struggle."

I have taken my daughter to Wendy as she struggled with my divorce from her dad and had problems with her anger. My daughter built up a relationship with her almost imidiatelly and often asked throughout the week when she’s going to see Wendy. It was very clear to me that my daughter trusted Wendy and felt safe to share her emotions with her. My daughter didn’t tell me much about their sessions but I could notice some changes in her behaviour and within a few weeks she became less aggressive towards me and seemed to come to terms with my divorce and her dad leaving family home. I was particularly impressed with the sandpit work which they’ve done together. Wendy shared pictures of their therapeutic work and it gave me lots of insight into my child’s internal world, how she sees me as her parent, what does she feel. Overall after a few sessions I felt like my daughter is supported by a brilliant, knowledgable therapist who both of us trusted. I would highly recommend her service to any child and parents who struggle.

"His confidence has grown and he's more able to discuss things with me now."

My son has been seeing Wendy for a few weeks now and it’s made such a difference. He suffers with trichotillomania and she’s been able to identify the root cause and figure out ways of trying to resolve it altogether. His confidence has grown and he’s more able to discuss things with me now. He absolutely loves his sessions and she’s also been a great help for me, allowing me to understand him better and giving me tips and techniques on being able to improve his self esteem and help him at home. I can’t recommend Wendy enough, she’s been an absolute godsend for us. Thank you so much Wendy!

"given her the tools to overcome the anxiety and to achieve her goals."

We have found Donna integral to our daughter managing her day to day anxiety. She has taught her various skills and given her the tools to overcome the anxiety and to achieve her goals. Thanks Donna ☺️

"I finally have my daughter back, happy, bubbly and confident again!"

My 12 year old daughter has been seeing Donna for a few months now and I couldn’t be happier with the results! The issues started when she went to high school and couldn’t cope with it all. The friendships, bullying, confidence and self esteem etc. As I parent I felt helpless as I couldn’t solve it no matter how hard I’ve tried and wasn’t getting any help from anywhere else. I found Donna and from the first message I knew I made the right choice. Donna was very professional, understanding and helpful and didn’t make us wait managed to see my daughter very quickly which was important. From day one Donna managed to have a great connection with my daughter who is always looking forward to seeing her. I finally have my daughter back, happy, bubbly and confident again! I’m so thankful for all the hard work! I would definitely 100% recommend! 🙂

"My daughter suffered darkest times in her life before seeing Donna"

My daughter suffered darkest times in her life before seeing Donna. Being a parent, I was devastated to the core. Luckily I found ReWellness while searching for help on Google. Donna quickly gained my daughter’s trust and built up good relations with her. She helped to resume my daughter’s hope and courage to live a better life, taught her many useful skills and tools to cope with difficulties and to overcome anxieties. After a few month’s therapy, I feel I no longer need to worry much about her self-harm thoughts or behaviours. She’s generally much happier now than before. I am deeply impressed, not only by Donna’s professionalism, but also that her being genuinely passionate in offering the help to as many young people as she can. I would confidently say as soon as your children meet Donna, they are pretty much in safe hands.

"There was no waiting 18 months she got seen within weeks and what lovely kind hearted people"

Was recommended by a friend I had a daughter who was in desperate need for help due to her mental health. There was no waiting 18 months she got seen within weeks and what lovely kind hearted people with a real sense of the troubles she faced. I highly recommend.

"I would 1000% recommend rewellness counselling, they are amazing at what the do, and truly care"

Wendy was absolutely amazing with my son, knew exactly how to get him to engage with her and listened to him. Wendy helped him grow in confidence in how to deal with emotions and talk about them and also helped us as a family to talk about past history in a positive way, I would 1000% recommend rewellness counselling, they are amazing at what the do, and truly care about the children’s mental and emotional wellbeing.

"offering understanding, empathy and a professional service."

The time from referral to when my teenage son could have his first counselling session was super fast, and he was able to see someone who had experience and knowledge with autism which was important. From the first conversation with ReWellness until the end of my sons sessions their communication has been great, offering understanding, empathy and a professional service.

"going above and beyond in every way to do whats best for him. He always wants to attend his sessions and asks to go back."

Wendy has been wonderful supporting our son in a challenging part of his life. She has been professional yet personable, caring, fun and going above and beyond in every way to do whats best for him. He always wants to attend his sessions and asks to go back. Thank you for all you have done.

"She literally has changed our families lives twice and we are forever grateful."

My 8yr old son has seen Wendy twice now both times with amazing results. The first time following a choking incident which caused food anxiety and he had stopped eating solid food, within weeks our life was back on track and more recently for general anxiety. Both times he progressed quickly and Wendy never keeps you going more than is required. She literally has changed our families lives twice and we are forever grateful.

Our Three-Step Counselling Process

At Rewellness Counselling, we make accessing support simple and stress-free. Our process ensures that every client receives the right guidance in a compassionate and structured way.

STEP 1: REACH OUT

Contact Us – Get in touch via our website, email, or phone to discuss your needs and ask any questions.

Choose Your Counsellor – Select a counsellor from our Meet the Team page or let us guide you to the best match based on your needs.

This allows us to gather important background information, understand concerns, and ensure the right support is in place for the young person’s journey.

The difference in my child since working with Wendy is amazing, coming out of the sessions like a weight has been lifted. Would definitely recommend.
