More about me

Years in Practice: 12 State: Alabama



I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Alabama who has spent 12 years working with individuals with a variety of mental illness diagnoses including psychotic disorders, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship and family issues, and co-occurring conditions. I received my Master's Degree from Troy University in 2011 and have been working at the same company full-time since then. I have been married for 27 years, and we have 3 boys (24, 21, and 9). I like for our interactions to be conversational and will use reality therapy, cognitive behavioral approaches, and mindfulness. In this space, you are free to be who you are and talk about what is important to you. There will be no judgment, and I urge you to be real and talk about whatever you want. You are taking the first steps to a better life, and I am glad to be here for it.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I am going through a major life transition and Ruth has been there to listen, support, challenge and guide me. I have a long way to go, but equipped with a map to help get me there this time.

Aug 24, 2023

Overall

Ruth asks questions to get me to reflect on a deeper level. She always open ended questions that give me room to express myself. On the contrary she hardly uses closed ended (yes or no) questions, unless it's trying to lead me toward a new direction of thought. Thank you Ruth for being good at your craft / skill.

May 22, 2023

Overall

It's only been a couple weeks, but it just feels good to have someone on my side. Ruth has listened and pinpointed some things I hadn't even thought of, which has helped me feel better about what I am going through. We seem to have clicked and I really appreciate that.

Overall

This is my first time in therapy and I’m so thankful I was able to be matched with someone who has been a lifesaver on my first try. She listens, she understands, she talks back with you, she doesn’t make it seem like you are just talking just to talk but most importantly she doesn’t judge. I would definitely recommend her to anyone going through anxiety or depression and I promise you will come out better in the end.
