Ruth is such a lovely woman and she helped us within the first consultation. I have booked another session with Ruth for next week and looking working with her!

I would highly recommend Ruth to everyone because she is a wonderful Therapist. She is patient, professionally flexible and most importantly she wants the best for everyone. I have been using her services for a while now and I have seen a significant improvement in my attitude towards everything and I look forward to learning more and growing more.

I would highly recommend you check out her services 😊

After a lifetime of numerous therapists, I now feel I'm getting somewhere. Ruths gentle and patient approach has made such a difference to the way I feel about therapy, and the way i feel about myself. R.

I had hypnotherapy to help with anxiety and stress. Life has been very difficult lately. I tried all kinds of things to help but nothing worked . Sessions with Ruth have been really helpful. I'm finally confident and happy.
I wasn't sure at first about hypnotherapy but I'm so glad I tried this! I fully recommend Ruth for her style of Hypnotherapy. I'll definitely be back for more!
Thank you!

I have nearly come to the end of my therapy and I couldn't be more grateful if I tried to Ruth. When I started I felt blocked and that I would never be able to overcome certain challenges. Ruth has taught me so much that will last a life time. And the difference with Ruth is that you leave feeling empowered rather than down. Which is what I've experienced with other therapists. Could not recommend enough!! Thank you More...

Earlier on this year I felt very lost and pretty desperate and I reached out here for some help and almost immediately was contacted by Ruth who straight away made me feel reassured there was a way out of the state my mind felt in. My sessions with Ruth felt easy and I was met with so much empathy and kindness and understanding. I’m really grateful for the time Ruth gave to me and have recommended to friends to speak with her as it helped but a little more clarity to some of my past and helped me so much in addressing it when it creeps back into my mind. I feel like anyone would benefit from speaking with Ruth More...

I started therapy because I have anger problems. I have learnt so much about myself and about others around me. I am so grateful to have hypnosis as well as counselling. It really helps me to feel relaxed and calm after a session. That feeling lasts for days! I've had therapy in the past but always left feeling stressed after. Ruth his helping me see how a future could look without my outbursts. Better work, family and personal relationships. I'm getting better and feeling good!
I'm now looking forward to my future because I feel like I have one. Thank you so much

If you are looking for a needle in a haystack, you’ve found it. This woman is absolute gold.

I have been talking with Ruth for a few weeks now and I love that I can talk openly. Ruth has the ability to make you feel comfortable, and safe when you talk things through with her. There is no judgement or stigma that comes with needing outside help for your well-being and mental health. When we talk Ruth will pick out parts of a conversation to explore and/or challenge my understanding or mindset on it. Not just about how I feel about it but also where that has come from, what past experience it has linked to and working on how to change how that experience impacts on my outlook now. I often feel that I am rambling but Ruth will allow me to finish and then raise points that I would never have considered as significant. Already I feel a little lighter, and my smiles a little brighter. I still have a lot to work through and I know Ruth will help get me where I need to be.

If you are looking for someone to help you tackle those mind blocks that hold you back from being your absolute best self and having all that you deserve, then I highly recommend Ruth. She was not the first person who I considered to help me on this journey but after our phone conversation I just knew, she was the right person to guide me in fixing myself and ousting those limiting beliefs holding me back from living my best life and feeling content.

Thank you so much Ruth. I hope you know how awesome you are and how the good work you do really changes lives. You help put a little bit more light in a world that can be quite dark. I look forward to continuing to work with you for a long time yet.

I find it hard to open up generally so was so relieved to find Ruth to talk to. Ruth really listened and helped me find my way back to a happier life. I was so depressed and couldn't see a way out of it. I now have the tools I need to go forward happier and healthier. Knowing I can always contact Let’s Talk again if I need to helps me feel supported. Definitely recommend Let's Talk! More...

Ruth has been a life saver. These are difficult times for us all and the pressures of work, or lack of it put a real strain on home and family life. Ruth has got us through this, by video call due to travel restrictions. Even by video it felt like she was in the room with us, guiding us. I would recommend her to anyone who is struggling. No matter how dark things seem to be she will help you see the light and guide you through More...

Ruth responded to my enquiry quickly and organised a convenient time to attend. A very relaxed environment where you can talk with ease. I found the session to be very helpful and outside of the sessions Ruth was available to advise and provide guidance. Thank you. More...

Ruth is a life saver!! I needed a therapist for a family member who was very low and suicidal, we didn’t no what to do or where to turn. I called Ruth and she started talking with my family member and made my family member feel safe and completely comfortable, with no pressure, after a few phone calls between them my family member is like a new person and now feels she’s worth life and so much happier. We can only thank Ruth for being there and going beyond for us, we now see her as a friend to us all x More...

Q&As

I gain a lot of satisfaction from helping my clients become their best selves. Some prefer Counselling and some like Hypnotherapy or even both together

Working for myself enables me to gaining a better work life balance which is important for me

Why should clients chose me?
I don't judge my clients. That isn't my place. The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed. Each client has different needs so I feel a flexible approach generally works well.
I cover most subjects either online or in person. I listen, discuss and help my clients move forward in the best possible way for them.
Once clients are talking to me who they are out in the world is left outside. It doesn't matter if they are a shy recluse or famous. It's just us and fully confidential!
I encourage anyone interested to read my reviews on here. It isnt easy to leave reviews in this area due to personal confidentiality yet some clients have left reviews all the same. Read them then talk to me and decide for yourself if we would be a good fit.

I provide online remote sessions via facetime/video link & face to face sessions

Clients their own private bathroom & therapy room. A full clean is done in between each visiting client. All disinfecting and safety guidelines are followed

Services

Hypnosis + therapy together for maximum affect!!Overcoming deep emotional scars, getting to the real reasons you feel the way you do. Rewiring your mind to think in positive and productive ways!!

Breath life back into your relationship ❤️
Improve communication, building trust,
Increase passion,
Enjoy life together again!
Invest time in yourselves!!

Talking therapy that can help a client unload deep sadness, find themselves and inner calm in a safe place.
