10/10 she is an amazing human being
Excellent therapist!
Wenona is a compassionate and knowledgeable therapist. She gives her full attention and energy to helping me get better. I truly appreciate her.
She allows me to communicate my way and isn't rude or condescending. I can express my good and bad and she has shown me ways to express gratitude even when the bad outweighs the good.
Excellent
I loved Wenni for the time being definitely will make you feel seen and heard. She will offer advice in the most refreshing fashion. I highly recommend Wenni to anyone struggling with anxiety.
Wenni has made a huge difference in my life and I highly recommend having her as a therapist!
Wenona connected with me right away and offered concrete strategies & solutions for my life.
This was my first session and I already have tools I can use. I love her worksheets. She also responds quickly to messages.
Wenona was truly a blessing to work with!
I had the luck to be paired up with her and primarily work on forgiving and improving the communication both with myself and people surrounding me. Her advice helped me boost my self-confidence and approach life in a more positive manner.
As I have gotten to know her, she is a very caring and thoughtful person who will be assertive when it needs to be. Her respectful, upfront manner made it very easy to get down to the nitty-gritty and work on improving it.
Thank you Wenona for all that you have done
I put a 9 because different people have different style and not all would match with Wenona but I would recomend her to anyone who might. Also in general, we're still getting started so I need some time to open up fully and then she'll have a better chance at understanding what I'm getting at
Wenona is a great therapist! She is helping me see things differently! Make a mind shift regarding limiting beliefs that I have about myself! It's helping me a lot!
She’s amazing!
She really listens and teaches helpful techniques to help me deal with anxiety. Its only been 2 weeks and i already feel a lot better
I worked with Wenni for the last two months and she has been lovely! I really appreciate her practical approach and the techniques she has given me to work on between our sessions. She has been very supportive and is always providing insightful responses to help me look at how I view situations differently.
Wenona is a great therapist. She has a way of making one feel comfortable and heard during sessions. I really found our talks helpful, she made me look at things from many different perspectives, which was very helpful in dealing with certain challenges.
Wenona humor and relaxed approach to therapy is exactly what I needed! She mixes humor with practical steps that I can practice over the week and then celebrates my successes. She is SO encouraging and since I tend to take life a little too seriously I find her laid-back approach refreshing and freeing.
She is amazing, supportive and has a great sense of what is being needed. I love her faith, encouraging words and that she helps me so much during difficult times
Winnie is a friendly, cheerful and motivating therapist. She listens thoughtfully in a non judgemental way and has help me to become a calmer person.
Wynona is so amazing and I’m fortunate to have her to help me through everything! I can share bad and good and she helps me to cope with things. She’s so understanding and know just what tools to give me! She’s a Godsend for aure
Wenona is fantastic. I've met with her twice thus far and she's already been able to help me with depression, anxiety and low self esteem. Thank you Wenona.
She’s great! I’ve only met with her once but she seems very knowledgeable and I’m excited to work with her more.
She’s the best
Wenni is one of the best hands down. She always messages me between sessions to check on me and I truly feel like she is invested in my mental health. She is real with me, kind with her words, has taught me how to think differently about situations and thoughts that cower over me. She is absolutely amazing. Thank you Wenni for being more than just a counselor, but a true confidant and believer in who I am.
Wenona is so approachable! She offers a great mix of sympathy and "tough love." I LOVE this about her style. She isn't afraid to call what she sees or hears like it is. With my anxiety, I need that kind of counsel. Her assistance has been so helpful for me! Best counselor I have ever had!!
She’s a very lovely lady who gives amazing advice whenever you’re in any type of conflict!
She is very caring and supportive, and would check on me all the time.
I cannot say enough about how wonderful Wenny is, she is funny, kind, and respectful. Having her as a therapist has changed my life in so many ways.
I feel grateful that I found Wenona because she is very good at seeing the issues I need to work on and highlights them for me. Issues that I hadn’t been that conscious of. She then explains them and helps me to self examine. I feel like she isn’t afraid to dive straight into it. Like a loving but firm friend who really cares about improving my life and coping skills.
She is great
she’s such a nice lady and amazing at her job give her a raise please
Wenona Wray has really been helpful in my progress of bettering myself. She has made it known to me that my feeling are valid and that I can overcome obstacles. She makes me feel heard and is always ready to help me.
She is great
Wenni is single-handedly the best counsellor I have ever had and I have tried many different types of therapy throughout the years. For the first time ever, I feel completely supported and validated by my counsellor. She’s great at giving tough love in the most optimistic and loving way. She is also hilarious! And always makes sure to leave our sessions off on a really positive/productive note. I never thought I’d actually get *excited* to talk to my counsellor and I have wenni to thank for that! She is absolutely incredible and anyone who talks to her is very lucky they got matched with such an amazing counsellor. I can hear her voice in my head when I’m having a wave of anxiety so I can tell the things she’s teaching me are really working. I’ve been able to work through my anxious thoughts wayyyy faster than before and my self esteem is gradually getting better with her help :) I feel blessed to have Wenni on my side throughout the trials and tribulations of life.
Winnie is sweet and kind, and exudes positivity. She's a wonderful listener and has provided me with excellent tools to manage my issues with anxiety and depression.
Seems very reasonable and rational. Hope to talk to her again
Wenona is very helpful and makes me feel very comfortable. She has helped me so much already and has made me feel very hopeful for my future even though I'm still very new to counselling
This being my first time in therapy, I‘m very glad to be paired with Wenni. I was nervous at first, but after our first video session, all my nerves went away. She is very easy to talk to and confide in!
Wenny Provides an welcoming atmosphere to really express your thoughts and concerns while also providing tools and advise to work out problems. I feel confident in my speaking and thought process while using the tools given.
I know that finding a counselor is similar to creating any other sort of bond with a person and my biggest concern going into this was that I would be paired with someone I didn't feel comfortable talking to. I was pleasantly surprised to find that I was matched with someone like Wenona. She is incredible at listening to anything and everything I have to say, she sends me helpful tips and worksheets to help me get through and work through anything I need, even when the conversation is serious she helps keep it light making it easier for me to express myself. It's even gotten to a point where sometimes our sessions are just friendly chats (which I never realize I need until I'm smack in the middle of them lol). I would 110% recommend her to anyone and everyone because sitting with her feels more like talking to a friend than it does talking to a counselor and I think that is so important because it gets me a whole lot more comfortable with the entire exchange of fears, anxieties, news etc. I would also like to mention that on top of our scheduled meetings, she makes a point of checking up on me between sessions (even thought I'm terrible at responding to texts), she is very quick to respond whenever I message her outside of our sessions, and she actually remembers everything, which really emphasizes the fact that she is invested in my well-being.
Professional, empathetic, understanding and wise
Wenni is such a good counselor. She has made me feel welcomed and accepted. She gave me great tools to use for my anxiety and has made my life easier with all her help. I would honestly be lost if it weren't for her help. She is non-judgemental and listens with empathy and really cares about you!
I’ve only had Wenni for I short while now but I’ve feel like I’m going in the right direction , she listens to my concerns and gives me the correct materials to deal with them , I know I have a long way to go but with Wenni’s guidance and expertise I feel like I can over come anything that affects me in my life .
Good
Ms. Wenona has helped me tremendously cope with my fears and anxiety. My sessions have been very pleasant with her. She has provided me with tools, information and biblical support that help me get through my tough days. I recommend her expertise to anyone who needs help in coping with anxiety and fears.
I really enjoy having her has my counselor. She provides a lot of useful information and actually listens to me. She is very patient which I am thankful for.
Working with Wenni has been really positive and I always end sessions feeling a lot better with tools and techniques I can use in my daily life! She is funny and welcoming, and able to read how you’re feeling really well to suit the session to you. Since having sessions with Wenni, there’s been a noticeable change in how I feel and act and I’m really grateful for our sessions!
I feel very grateful for being connected with Wenni. Working with her is a pleasure and I was actually surprised by how much of an impact have just a couple of weeks had on my life. Her approach is very friendly and caring and I appreciate it so much.
Wenona Wray does her work exceptionally well. l'm enjoying working with her and l would recommend her to anyone in need of such kind of help.
Wenona is caring and flexible and positive. I'm thankful for her.
I have only great things to say about Wenni! I always look forward to our sessions and feel as though she is really helping me blossom into a well rounded individual both mentally and emotionally. I always feel understood and respected, I never feel judged or rushed to make progress. She has a great was of meeting me where I'm at and after our sessions I'm left feeling very optimistic about my future.
Working with Wenona Wray has been awesome. I feel that she cares for me. She gives me great actionable things to work on. She listens attentively. I have recommended teen counseling to friends because of my awesome experience with my therapist. Thank you Wenona Wray for being awesome. I tried Talkspace before and teencounseling.com is so much better. Waaaaaay better. I will continue with this service because it is essential for my wellbeing.
Mrs.Winni is extremely helpful from the very beginning she listens to all my concerns takes the time to ask and dig nonstop for information I need. She also has a very heartwarming voice that just makes the conversation with her even more smooth she works with my outrageous schedule and definitely helps military personnel like myself very understanding and honest. She cares about her patients and is very trustworthy. I would definitely recommend her as a counselor to my friends and colleagues that are having a hard time. 10/10 :)
Wenona has a great approach i have only had 1 session with her but I can see already I am talking with professional.
In the short time I have been working with Wenona I have seen a huge difference in myself and how I handle the highs and lows of the day. I have been able to get practical insights into my thinking and been able to apply the techniques she has offered me easily. She is very supportive and understanding, it had been a pleasure working with her.
Wenona took the time to listen to my concerns and talk through a range of feasible options to start with. Her voice is lovely and reassuring and I felt she understood my challenges well. Thank you
