Connect with Ruby Rowan
My approach to therapy is practical, creative, humorous, and interactive. Engaging in therapy is a vulnerable and courageous step, and I aim to foster a comfortable, collaborative process. When the tools and skills that were previously helpful are no longer working, I support clients to cultivate new coping skills, and identify potential areas for change and/or acceptance. I am a seasoned therapist who is able to draw from a variety of modalities depending on what comes up for the client.
I mostly rely on theories of intersectionality, feminism, attachment, Internal Family Systems, EMDR, embodiment, CBT, DBT, and I am trauma informed. I identify as trans non-binary and queer, and welcome members of queer and trans communities. I love doing couples work, and family work with adult children.
I have specific experience in the areas of Diabetes management, ADHD, and neurodivergence. I am fat-positive, and committed to body liberation. Please send me a message for more information, and to arrange a free consultation. I look forward to connecting with you!

In our initial sessions we'll learn about your history, and get an understanding of how your life experiences have brought you to where you are. As we explore how you navigate your life and relationships, we'll begin to see the patterns that aren't working.
