LifeBack Counselling

About

Counselling services to get your life back - whether anxiety, depression, grief, loss of identity or any number of issues are holding you back.

Story

My name is Ruth and I have a passion for people and seeing them flourish in their lives, relationships and communities. I am a non-judgmental, empathetic, and diligent counsellor who is passionate about seeing positive outcomes for all my clients.

From experience in motherhood, counselling at a local Women’s Centre, as well as previous nursing work, I have navigated the women’s health setting first hand. I have encountered women working through depression, anxiety, identity crises, parenting struggles, a sense of inadequacy, relationship issues, hopelessness, grief and loss, traumatic experiences, and so much more. I specialise in narrative, solution-focused and collaborative therapy to help guide the change you would like in your life.

I am particularly passionate about are challenges that face women in adjusting to new roles, for example:​
- New mums
- Identity issues through life changes (for example, transition from working to stay at home mum)
- Parenting struggles (young children through to teens)
- Loss of identity
- Sense of failure
- Depression
- Anxiety disorders
- Or simply 'not being enough'

I genuinely look forward to hearing from you and hopefully working with you soon to get your life back <3
