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.

My 12 years old daughter has been seeing Donna for 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! :)

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.

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 ☺️

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!

Wendy spent lots of time with my son, working through his worries and giving him a safe space to talk. He really enjoyed his play sessions. Thank you Wendy

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 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 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 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 few sessions I felt like my daughter is supported by brilliant, knowledgable therapist who both of us trusted. I would highly recommend her service to any child and parent who struggle.

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.
