TALKING THERAPY Testimonials

I went to see Lorraine because I didn't felt I wasn't dealing with a family breakup and had become unable to trust people. It was affecting my relationship with my friends and family.

It was nice just to be able to talk to someone and offload some of the feelings that I had bottled up then to talk about them. I had been feeling stuck for some time before I saw Lorraine, she helped me to move on and to focus on the positives.

I would recommend Lorraine to anyone either for therapy or just as someone impartial to talk to. I have finished my sessions with Lorraine but she said I am always welcome back just to talk about how I've been getting on.

A friend recommended me to Lorraine at the beginning of the year and I can honestly say it is the best advice I have even taken. I was in a complete mess and couldn't see a way out of it, I felt like my life was just spiralling out of control. I couldn't sleep and was so anxious. Lorraine was so approachable and easy to talk to that she made me feel at ease straight away. I felt like I could tell her anything and she didn't judge me just sat and listened to all my thoughts and worries and helped me work thought them by thinking and looking at things in a different way. She has helped me through a difficult time and I don't know how I would have done it without her. Thanks Lorraine

I was recommended to see Lorraine when i started to get bad panic attacks whilst driving on the motorways. She helped me talk through any issues or problems, past and present, and kindly guided me and help me re asses my life. I feel so much calmer and able to deal with the panic, and a new confendence in myself. Thank you Lorraine. I would certainly recommend her to anyone.

I called Lorraine when I had no idea where to go or what to do next. Despite feeling as though my problem was very small, Lorraine never made me feel this way and always made time for me. Talking my problems through with Lorraine was the best thing I have ever done, she allowed me to tell her in my own time without be judgmental and allowing me to say how things really were without having to tell someone what I really thought they wanted to hear! Lorraine helped me to make sense of my situation and come to a decision I was happy with and not what others wanted me to do. She made me realise why others behave the way they do and why I had these feelings of anxiety and worry. Since discussing my problems with Lorraine I feel so much better, I now have all this energy and I enjoy life so much more and more importantly I believe in myself for the first time in ages! I was very hesitant to go and see Lorraine and I felt ashamed, but after talking through my problems I am so glad I went and would have no hesitation to go back to Lorraine if I should need to discuss through my problems. Talking therapy is a must for anyone who is going through a problem - it does not matter how small that problem is or how silly you feel, Lorraine is fantastic and will put you at ease and will support you through the problem. Thank you Lorraine, you have helped me to get my life back!

I would like to say that Lorraine has helped me through 2 real hard times. If it wasn't for her I dread to think where I would be.

The saying "it's good to talk" is very true. When there has been so much going on in your life and you feel you cannot tell your family everything, this is the way to sort out your head and your heart. No one judging, only making you see what you already know.

Great friendly understanding counseller. Offers so much support and has really helped me through a difficult time.

I cannot praise Lorraine Wray enough. She has helped me enormously and i consider her a friend. I would be extremely happy to recommend her to anyone

A superb therapist, highly recommended, she helped me a great deal, a lovely lady!

We went to see Lorraine after separating with a view to get the marriage back on track, spending 9 months with her. I can recommend using Lorraine as I found the approach, structure and general guidance she offers a great asset. The process of steering people through troubled times both face to face and over the telephone helps to alleviate the pressures and improve communication, a theme that Lorraine returned us to on many occasions, really helped.

I started to see Lorraine after going through a difficult patch in my relationship, which nearly come to an end after 5 years!
My boyfried and I had a rather tough year for all sorts of reasons, but I found myself becoming rather controlling and quite depressed.
After meeting with Lorraine and talking through things, she helped me to understand why I was being the way I was, and how to stop. My relationship is now back on track and we are stronger and more open than ever before. I also feel like a different person, more relaxed and not so controlling.
Taking the step and meeting Lorraine was one of the best things I have ever done. She made me feel very welcome and comfortable to be able to open up to. I would recommend to anyone who is having a difficult time and in need of some guidence, to call Lorraine!!

I started to see Lorraine because i suffer from anxiety and have done for as long as i can remember.

I felt nervous about going for the first time, for obvious reasons. But when i got there i felt welcomed by Lorraine and at ease with the environment. I felt i could open up and start to get all my problems across to Lorraine with ease.

Since then i have visited Lorraine once a week and still do at this present time. I find it very helpful and i recommend Lorraine to anyone in the local area who is thinking of seeking help.

You wont regret it.

I called Lorraine, when I was experiencing problems in my marriage and from the first conversation I had with her I felt at ease and was grateful for someone to listen. There were aspects of my life that I kept bottled up inside and Lorraine helped me face those, which lifted my confidence no end. My husband kept telling me that our marriage had got to where is was because of me and I believed it was all my fault - but Lorraine made me realise that the issues I had were not all down to me! She gave regular advice on how to approach certain things and although I feel so much better in myself and have stopped my sessions, I have arranged to meet with Lorraine in about 2 months, just to have an update on where I am. If anyone is experiencing any problems in their life I would highly recommend counselling from Lorraine for support and guidance.
