Hello, I'm Ru, a passionate mental health professional who believes in dreaming big, both for myself and for my clients. I have a strong conviction that clients are experts in their own lives, and I'm dedicated to collaborating with them to create the best outcomes for their mental health success.

As a therapist, I'm not typical in my approach. I believe in taking an integrative, eclectic, and humanistic approach to therapy, which means that we won't just sit around, but we'll be constantly working and reassessing what works best for you. I believe in being less passive and more active in your outcomes.

Research shows that the best indicator of success in therapy is a strong rapport between the client and therapist. For that reason, I prioritize building a deep and meaningful relationship with my clients. Even through the tough times, there are moments for introspection, and even laughter in our sessions. I'm engaged, passionate, and I love those "aha" moments of epiphany when we discover new insights about you together.

My specializations include trauma, anxiety, depression, Adult ADHD management, relational/couples counseling, co-parenting concerns, and blended family mediation. Additionally, I can provide coaching and consultation on business or non-profit management and major life transitions like starting a new career or beginning a new business.

Overall, I view therapy as a journey, and I want to make you the star of your life. If you're ready to take control of your life and embark on this transformative journey with me, let's connect and work together to create a brighter future for you!
