About us

The journey home: Rediscovering your authentic self.

Our Story

Founded in 2020 by Wendy and Donna, ReWellness Counselling specialises in supporting the mental health and well-being of young people. With a holistic approach that connects emotional, mental, and physical health, our mission is to help the next generation heal, grow, and thrive. Inspired by personal experiences and a commitment to creating safe, supportive spaces, we are dedicated to empowering young people to overcome challenges and reach their full potential.

Person-centered approach

BEYOND LABELS - Person Centred Therapy

At ReWellness Counselling, our ethos is rooted in the profound principles of person-centred care, a philosophy pioneered by the esteemed psychologist Carl Rogers. We believe in seeing each individual as a unique, whole person, beyond any labels or circumstances. Our approach is built on empathy, respect, and genuine understanding, ensuring that every person feels valued and heard.

our mission

At Rewellness Counselling, our mission is to empower individuals, particularly children and young people, to overcome their emotional and mental struggles. Drawing from our personal experiences, we understand the challenges that individuals face and are deeply committed to providing holistic support that promotes healing and growth.

We are especially passionate about children’s mental health. Having raised large families and witnessed the impact of the digital age on children’s self-esteem and mental health, we recognised the critical need for accessible and effective mental health support for young people. This led us to develop programs dedicated to supporting women and children affected by domestic violence, where we focused on creating safe spaces for children to express their stories and heal from trauma.

beyond labels

We Believe

BEYOND LABELS - Person Centred Therapy

We believe every person is more than a label. Today, terms like Autism and ADHD can overshadow a person’s individuality. Inspired by Carl Rogers’ philosophies, we see everyone as a whole person, beyond any label. This humanistic approach values understanding and nurturing the entire being, promoting growth, self-esteem, and emotional well-being. Our goal is to create a supportive environment where every client feels seen, heard, and valued for who they truly are, ensuring they thrive as unique individuals. Our approach is rooted in holistic health principles, considering past traumas, emotions, and experiences that are stored within us and often compromise our well-being. We are fierce advocates for looking beyond symptoms to understand the root causes of distress, and we empower our clients to explore alternative healing methods that complement traditional approaches.

Focusing on Holistic health

Nurturing mind, body and spirit

Holistic therapy is all about caring for the whole person, not just addressing isolated symptoms. This means we take the time to explore various aspects of your life, including your physical health, emotional state, social relationships, spiritual beliefs, and environmental factors. By understanding and nurturing all these areas, holistic therapy aims to help you achieve a balanced and harmonious state of well-being.

ReWellness helped us with some parent coaching and it was such a positive experience. From our initial contact with Donna, to our assessment with Wendy and through to our sessions with Aaron, my husband and I felt fully supported. ReWellness provided a space in which we felt safe to explore the challenges we were facing as parents and provided professional and expert assistance in how to overcome these. There is an overwhelming amount of information available to parents and it can feel exhausting trying to find the right solution for your family. Based on our assessment the sessions we attended with ReWellness were focussed and family centred. Their help has been invaluable and I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Very blessed by the online services offered by this wonderful organization. Their counselors are highly professional and kind. They are prompt with scheduling and billing. It is clear each of their staff carries real hearts to serve and see people grow.

I can't recommend ReWellness highly enough, from their flexibility, lack of waiting times, excellent therapists and fantastic venue. My daughter asked for her sessions having realised how much they benefit her.

We took my daughter to see Donna as she suffers from anxiety and emetophobia. From the 1st session Donna built a really nice relationship with her and was extremely understanding. She listened to her and supported her. She taught some really good coping skills and also helped us as parents when we needed support with her school. Would definitely recommend

I would highly recommend ReWellness Counselling if your child requires support. My son was really receptive to discussing his feelings and emotions in this safe place. The Counsellor took take time to understand his issues, which includes childhood trauma. He was able to discuss his worries and looked forward to his sessions.

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.

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.

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.

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.
