What clients say about working with Rowena
These are selected testimonials from real clients, shared here with their permission. They are a small, honest sample of the feedback Rowena has received, not a curated highlight reel or a rating.
Why these reviews look the way they do
You will notice the quotes below are anonymous, and most carry no name at all. That is deliberate. In counselling, confidentiality matters more than in almost any other kind of work. People share these words after some of the hardest moments of their lives, so keeping them unidentifiable is not a formality, it is part of the care.
Every quote here was given freely and in writing, and shared with permission. Feedback like this means a great deal to Rowena. It is a reminder that the work matters, and it helps people who are thinking about reaching out get a truer sense of what it can feel like to be listened to properly.
If any of this sounds like the kind of support you are looking for, the next step is simple. You can start with a free 20-minute telephone consultation, a relaxed, no-pressure conversation to see whether working together feels right. You can book a consultation whenever you feel ready, or read more about the ways we can work together first.
Selected testimonials
I recently had several sessions with Rowena which have been very helpful, and I wish I'd had counselling earlier! I've found talking about the issue has helped enormously in coming to terms with things, and specifically my acceptance of the situation and regaining a sense of gratitude and ongoing value. Rowena has been enormously helpful in this process and allowed me to work things out by myself but with suitable and necessary prompts and questions at times. Whatever life's ups and downs, talking with an independent professional, rather than stewing alone, is highly recommended.
Thank you Rowena, so much for your time and supportiveness. You are a great listener and encourager. It was such fun. I love your ideas, and your creativeness. You are an inspiration.
Single Session Therapy client Counselling has made a profound difference to my life. Rowena has helped me to understand the various emotions that had silently shaped my personality for so long. The experience changed me, for the better. I am now approaching life with a greater self-awareness and emotional resilience. The burdens that before could feel overwhelming, no longer define me. I feel empowered to embrace life with clarity and confidence. Close friends have even commented on the difference in me.
My experience of counselling was a very positive one. Rowena was very easy to talk to and listened attentively. I was worried about having to start with a new counsellor, having to start from scratch. After the first couple of sessions though I felt like she'd always worked with me. Thank you.
