About Ruth Darby
Ruth offers a supportive, non-judgemental space where clients can explore feelings at their own pace within a collaborative therapeutic relationship. She encourages clients to share what they feel comfortable disclosing and to work toward greater resilience, self-compassion and a stronger sense of wellbeing. As a mature practitioner, she also draws on her own lived experience of navigating difficult life circumstances to inform her empathetic style of support.
Ruth has experience supporting people with anxiety and depression, grief and loss, relationship difficulties and estrangement, family conflict, stress and life transitions, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, parenting challenges, anger, low self-esteem and other coping issues. She uses an integrative approach that centres on person-centred therapy while also employing techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy, trauma-informed practice, transactional analysis and mindfulness to meet each client’s needs. Ruth aims to create a genuine, supportive therapeutic relationship in which clients feel heard and valued, and she welcomes enquiries from those ready to take the first step toward change.
