Michelle Ruth
Integrative Counsellor
Life can sometimes feel overwhelming. We don’t always fully understand why we feel the way we feel, so understanding our patterns of behaviour through counselling can be a validating and empowering experience. It can help us move forward in life with greater understanding and a deeper sense of self.
Who I work with
I work with clients experiencing various difficulties, including but not limited to: anxiety, depression, low mood, bereavement, trauma, illness, low self-esteem, relationship or family issues, gender identity, sexuality, sexual abuse, loneliness, work-related stress, grief and feeling stuck.
I aim to provide inclusive and affirmative therapy with all clients, regardless of experience or how they present to the world - you don’t have to be anyone but yourself.
Â
How I work
Â
Every person is unique, so I take an individual approach with each client. I am respectful and compassionate in my approach and I’m committed to helping you understand your experiences, heal from past trauma and live your life in the most meaningful way possible.
I work with adults individually or those in relationships – be that couples, multi-partnered, or family members and friends / colleagues.
I offer both short-term and long-term counselling, as well as single-session counselling and Wellbeing MOTs, for those looking for a one-off experience without the commitment of regular therapy.
I work both online and in-person.

Fees
Individual counselling - £80 for 50 minutes
Couples / relationship counselling - £130 for 60 minutes
I offer a limited number of sessions at a concessionary rate - please contact me to discuss this further.
