Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida with over 20 years of clinical experience. I graduated with a master's degree in Mental Health Counseling from Nova University in December of 2002 and got my license in 2005. I have worked with all ages, but my focus now is on teenagers through older adults. I work with clients experiencing depression, anxiety, stress, life transition, women's issues, as well as parenting and self-esteem issues.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is very client centered and multidisciplinary; my modalities are cognitive behavioral therapy, behavior therapy, solution-focused therapy and stress management/mindfulness.

What you can expect from our first session

I like to create an environment in which clients feel free to express themselves and receive non-judgmental feedback and guidance. My goal is to empower clients to make the changes they need to make to be their best selves and achieve their own goals.

Ruth's style is

Empowering
Warm
Solution-oriented
