Ruth is absolutely amazing!! at what she does. I came across Ruth randomly on social media when I was in a real bad place from a long marriage and bad divorce, i had no idea how to get myself on track. Ruth has given me a safe space to work through so many things, she does not judge and completely understands what life can throw at you, the techniques she uses have changed my life in so many ways, from where I was to where I am now, is night and day, ive recently started a business which I have been able to do because of Ruth, with the sessions and tools she has shown me, i overcame my fears, and low self worth, and im the happiest I have been in years. I owe so much to Ruth, no words will ever be enough, she is a very special person, I would absolutely recommend Ruth to anyone and trust that they are in an amazing person's care.

When I first met Ruth, I knew instantly that she was the right woman to work with. As a small business owner trying to stay relevant, be fully present for my clients and juggle home life, I needed a trusted, safe space where I could be completely open. Ruth gave me exactly that. I now have a much deeper understanding of how I process emotions, what triggers feelings of stress or overwhelm, and the tools I can use to navigate the unavoidable ups and downs of running a business. I’m sleeping better, communicating my needs more clearly and feeling in a much better place overall. Thank you so much, Ruth. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to other women in business or to my own clients.

I came to Ruth at a point when I felt like I was constantly running on empty. I was short-tempered with my kids, anxious about everything that could go wrong, and quietly worried that I was sliding into helicopter parent territory. I wanted to let go of people-pleasing tendencies and to become a calmer, more patient parent, but I needed additional tools to get there. My first impression of Ruth was her remarkably warm presence, matched by an extraordinary depth of knowledge. Her understanding of the nervous system and how it connects to emotional regulation is truly impressive. She has a gift for explaining the science in a way that's clear and captivating, and that also provides an essential framework for the work that follows. What feels different about Ruth's process is that she gave me practical tools for life and parenting almost immediately. Her guidance has not only helped me with my own reactivity but also translated directly to supporting my kids when they're in the thick of a tantrum. That has been one of the most meaningful gifts of my time with Ruth. Our house is calmer and my kids are getting a more grounded and present version of me. One practical note: Ruth is based in the UK and I'm in the US, and she has been incredibly accommodating with the time difference. I've mixed up our timing on more than one occasion, and Ruth has navigated it with such grace. It never once felt like a logistical hurdle. You will never question that Ruth cares! She is brilliant at what she does, and she's also just a genuinely lovely human being.

Been having therapy sessions with the lovely Ruth for a few months and now and I couldn’t recommend her more. I have worked with a few therapist in the pasted and never connected enough with them to truly open up but with Ruth I can honestly say she is the best I have ever met.

Had an amazing experience working with Ruth, her style and knowledge really sets you at ease and allows you to fully explore your mind and reach a higher level of self awareness. Would highly recommend Ruth’s treatments, I felt very welcome, safe and saw real physical results by the conclusion of the sessions. Thank you again for everything!

Ruth has been a lifesaver during a very difficult period in my life. Ruth's knowledge, compassion and intuition has been hugely helpful when navigating complex relationship and trauma related issues, and her ability to gently steer me towards developing a more grounded and nourishing relationship with myself has been invaluable. Ruth draws on many different strands of coaching practices in her work, always responding to what needs attention; session by session and moment to moment. Ruth's warm and caring nature, coupled with her expertise and skill-set has been transformative and deeply healing for me. I really cannot recommend her enough.

Ruth has been absolutely amazing with my daughter. She’s worked so hard and with such care, making everything seem so natural and effortless. She’s given my daughter the tools and confidence to manage her anxiety, understand her emotions, and recognise how her feelings show up in her body. Over the weeks, Ruth has built such a lovely relationship of trust and understanding with her, and the progress we’ve seen has been incredible. Her approach is gentle, warm and nothing is too much trouble for her. I’m so grateful for everything Ruth has done and would recommend her to anyone without any hesitation.

Ruth is truly one of the kindest and most compassionate people I’ve ever met. Over the course of four sessions, I experienced a profound breakthrough in just our second meeting. Ruth provided me with a practical, personalised toolkit of genuinely useable techniques to help me regulate my anxiety and manage the onset of panic in a calm, grounded way. Our sessions coincided with a trip to Cornwall — a time when I’d typically find travel exhausting and emotionally challenging. This time, however, was completely different. I journeyed peacefully, with little to no anxiety, and found myself fully present, enjoying beautiful moments of joy and stillness. I genuinely believe Ruth’s support and techniques helped make that possible. I would wholeheartedly recommend Ruth to anyone — friends, family, or anyone seeking more inner peace. If you’re looking to work with someone who genuinely cares, who meets you with warmth and deep understanding, and who truly wants you to feel that calm we all deserve, then book a session with Ruth. You absolutely won’t regret it.

I would highly recommend Ruth. She has saved my sanity. Ruth helped me work through past events and traumas allowing me to get back to my unique self and become intune with my body. I am and always will be forever grateful for no longer being stuck in Fight or Flight mode. Finally thank goodness for the "Voo Breath" 🙏

I've had sessions with Ruth for quite a while and she never fails to put a postive look on everything. Not only with sessions but the support that surrounds them.
