I find Ruth a wonderful support bringing clarity and understanding to my confusion and feelings of helplessness and giving me a clear map to wellness. In the short time I have had with her it's amazing how much progress I 've been able to make. She is the listening ear and advisor I needed.

She has been the most supportive therapist I’ve ever had

Taken the time to listen to what I have to say and make an effort to get to know and understand me before going into resolving my past traumas and what it is I need to work on to be a better person.

I was quite nervous about starting therapy but after my first session with Ruth, she really put me at ease. Not only do I feel like I’m growing emotionally through this experience but Ruth has given me practical tools to help me cope better in difficult situations. I feel really positive after my sessions with Ruth and would recommend her to anyone and everyone!

Ruth is a great listener and remembers what we have discussed in the previous sessions. I feel her support.

Very good at allowing her patient to have autonomy but also guiding them, she’s very observant, positive and professional. I feel I can be my most authentic self and she’s helped me heal traumas and now I can understand myself better and help find self helping tools to better my mental health

She is very helpful and professional

Ruth makes me extremely comfortable and at ease. Highly recommended!! Thanks Ruth! X

I was so nervous doing therapy but when I got matched with Ruth she made me feel relaxed because she sounded concerned and cared about my issues she has really helped me anyone who matched with Ruth you have a really good therapist I couldn’t of asked for someone better

Ruth is extremely kind and empathetic. She listens and offers great views and advice that I personally found very helpful.

Ruth helped me transition out of a highly stressful work environment which severely disrupted my confidence and feelings of self worth. Ruth was always empathetic in listening , validating the impact that the incident had on me, along with giving me impartial advice which I would not be able to come to the conclusion to on my own. Highly recommend Ruth - she is a wonder to work with and made me feel absolutely at ease.

Ruth created and maintained a safe, supportive and professional environment from the very first session. She encouraged me to decide the pace and focus of our meetings, and I am grateful to have had that agency. Ruth was honest, direct and gave useful and practical guidance. I am grateful for her counselling and will certainly choose to be paired with her in the future. Thank you, Ruth!

Understanding and patient to listen

Ruth is extremely helpful caring and kind couldn’t ask for a better therapist

Ruth is an incredibly kind, understanding and supportive person. She understands me very clearly and holds up a clear mirror so I have an opportunity to reflect on my own actions and thoughts and learn how to manage them. She gently guides me in the right direction and teaches me self-awareness. Ruth noticed details and asks just the right questions, as well as saying just the right things. She is very supportive and encouraging, and her words carry a lot of weight. Ruth provides a comfortable space where reliving past traumas and looking back at unpleasant memories in front of another person is liberating and insightful. Not only she is an excellent therapist, she also has a wonderful sense of humour where appropriate, which lights up my sessions. I usually leave in a good mood, relieved, motivated and thoughtful. If you’re struggling with motivation issues or low self esteem, I cannot recommend her highly enough.
