About Ruth

Room to grieve, room to grow

Room to grieve, room to grow

I came to therapy work through hospice social work, where I learned how much people can carry — and how much lighter it feels when someone carries it with them.

Together we’ll make space for whatever you’re feeling, without rushing toward “moving on.” I use narrative and person-centred approaches, along with practical tools for the hard days.

Many of my clients are navigating big transitions — a move, a diagnosis, a divorce, an empty nest. You don’t have to have the words yet. We’ll find them together.

“Grief is love with nowhere to go. Here, it has somewhere to land.”
