“I am 42 years old and it took me a long time (in fact years) to finally decide, perhaps it was time that I talked to someone. Even after a difficult childhood and various struggles in my adult life, I was used to do things on my own and finding my own way.
I always found it very difficult to ask for help, but I felt that something needed to change because I was carrying a lot inside my head and it was affecting me and others around me. I started my sessions with an open mind, just to talk to someone about my life finally and see where it took me.
From the first session I felt comfortable with Ruth, talking about things that affected me for a very long time. And really, it felt like I was putting a weight down. She listens to you and shows you things perhaps you did not look at/think about before.
She has also helped me with how I communicate with others and how to deal with my bad moods. I have to say that I am at peace with some of my childhood issues and also accepting things that I can’t change/out of my control. My relationships with others have also improved.
Life is full of struggles, but I feel that I am dealing with things better than before. I am very grateful to Ruth for helping me and hope that this review will help others who are not sure about taking therapy.”
