Thank you so much for everything you did with and for me while being my Mentor. You helped me actually stay in University and get through my first semester, helped improve my general wellbeing and academic performance. Thank you so much. More than I could have hoped for in a Specialist Mentor.

I was not sure what to expect when it was first suggested to me that I should have a mentor - but it was one of the best things that has happened to me in regards to improving my overall health and happiness. Having such an understanding and patient mentor has allowed myself to improve on aspects of my life that I didn't even think were affecting me. My mental health and the way I view life, as well as considering a healthy balance throughout my life has really improved - this would not have happened without the help from my mentor. Having such an empathetic and open minded mentor, who has guided me into having positive changes in my life, when I started to believe I was stuck and a failure, really helped my confidence and I couldn't be more grateful. Having that help throughout my struggles in life, no matter how big or small, is something that I will always appreciate - along with the fact my mentor is so flexible with when and how we can communicate (in person, emails, phone calls). I always feel like I am supported, no matter where and whatever the circumstances. I would recommend this service and my mentor to everybody!

Onyx Support has been a lifeline for me throughout my journey. The guidance from my Mentor Ashley has not only helped me stay on top of assignments but also given me the tools to manage stress, anxiety, and my overall mental health. The encouragement and practical strategies she provided made a huge difference in my confidence and resilience. Without her and Onyx Support, I truly do not believe I would have come this far. I’m deeply grateful for the patience, understanding, and dedication they’ve shown me, and I would wholeheartedly recommend Onyx Support to anyone who needs both academic and emotional support.

My support with Onyx has been fantastic! Everything was sorted out so quickly after my assessment, and they kept in touch with me at all stages. My Support Mentor is so wonderful, they have helped my confidence so much. Knowing that I’ve got support when I need it, with someone who can help me in all areas of my course, and is knowledgable in the field of my study is a HUGE bonus. I’ve even applied for roles within and outside of university that I wouldn’t have felt able to before due to their encouragement and support. I am feeling confident that the next two years of my course will be achievable, and maybe I will even be able to go on to do a MA, and being able to say that is huge, as I was terrified of failing university before.

I had Linda as my mentor, and I cannot thank her enough for her amazing support. Linda advocated for me regarding my mental health concerns. Linda was very prompt and efficient with safeguarding me, and the extra support I required was implemented. I was very impressed with the efficiency and the speed in which Linda managed this. Linda is very gentle and understanding; she provided multiple solutions and we discussed different action plans that would best suit my needs. Linda is very caring and compassionate, she made me feel safe and comfortable, I was able to build a trusting bond, which enabled me to speak openly about concerns and struggles that I was facing. I cannot thank Linda enough for being a great listener and supporter. As soon as I contacted Onyx, I had a mentor set up very quickly, and I am very impressed with the services.

When I first started at University I really struggled with social anxiety, giving presentations and meeting new people. This made me stop going to classes and avoid seminars and my quality of work got worse. My mentor supported me through this and helped me to develop coping strategies and skills which both reduced my anxiety and developed my confidence. I now feel confident attending classes and interacting in groups.

My mentor Christopher was absolutely fantastic, we built such a good rapport and he immediately made me feel comfortable and able to discuss my troubles with him. He had a brilliant mixture of combining university and mental health along with therapeutic style to discuss problems. I have benefited so much from him, and I wished to pass on good words as I would recommend him to anyone.

This is to say Thank You to Onyx for the support you provided for me through Lucy Rix whilst reading my LLM Legal Practice Course at the University of Law. Lucy was just amazing and very efficient. Her communication skills, time management, and support as a whole were excellent. She was well organised and had all the patience for me anytime I seemed to be going too fast. We worked as a team and I enjoyed learning with her. She had all my voluminous and overwhelming learning materials under control. She was able to convert all the inaccessible documents to accessible formats for me which was very useful. In a nutshell, Lucy was just amazing: very helpful and highly effective. I am extremely satisfied with this support I received from Onyx. Thank you once again.

Ashley, I don't even know where to start. Phenomenal, extraordinary, and truly outstanding! Always ready to lend an ear, incredibly supportive, and exceptionally kind. Her positive impact is simply unmatched! She supported me through my struggles with dyslexia, assisted with my diagnosis of ADHD and autism, and guided me on days when everything felt overwhelming. She helped me learn to say no, especially during times when it was the most difficult. Could not of got through my degree without her.
