Hi, I'm Ruth, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a deep passion for helping individuals navigate anxiety and relationship struggles.I specialize in support helping individuals manage depression, low self-esteem, and anger. I support adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about the future—whether it’s balancing career and personal life, processing difficult emotions, or building self-worth. I’m dedicated to helping you identify and challenge negative thought patterns that affect your emotions and behaviors. Together, we’ll work on creating healthier coping strategies and building resilience to improve your well-being.
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), along with Strengths-Based, Solution-Focused, Person-Centered, and Mindfulness approaches to help you reframe unhelpful thoughts, build coping skills, and create meaningful change. In a supportive, non-judgmenta space, we’ll focus on healing, growth, and achieving your goals. Together, we will build on your strengths
Reaching out can feel intimidating, but it’s a brave step. You don’t have to face this alone. My goal is to help you feel confident, self-aware, and connected—to yourself, others, and a life of fulfillment. I’m here to support you on your journey, and healing is always possible. It would be an honor to walk with you.
