When relationships (business, family or personal) are troubled, we can feel anxious or depressed. Whether its lack of, ending of, difficulties with or changes in relationships, at work or home, our need for human closeness both brings pleasure and causes problems. Maybe change is driven by others, maybe you need something to change but don't know the best way to go about it. Perhaps you’re finding that you’re stuck in a destructive communication pattern and feel like you’re going round in circles. Maybe you don’t really know what you want, but would like to find out. I can help.

I have an open, friendly and supportive manner, backed by my academic qualifications and many years of experience. I am trained in clinical psychology and holds both undergraduate and postgraduate qualifications in this area. I hold an MSc in Marriage, Family and Child Counselling. I also holds professional qualifications, and am highly experienced in working with alcohol and drug abuse. In addition I am a visiting lecturer for PhD students completing their final year at Glasgow's Caledonian University, and delivers mindfulness training to individuals, groups and businesses. ​

Do you feel anxious, worried or depressed? Sometimes life can be hard, and it can difficult to make sense of distressing thoughts and feelings, and heal from painful life events. Sometimes we might find ourselves stuck, and unable to move forward in the way that we wish to. Often talking to family and friends may be difficult for a number of reasons. This is when it can be helpful to talk to a trained professional who is unbiased and separate from your life. I will provide a safe, confidential space for you, underpinned by a supportive and empathic therapeutic relationship where we can work together on your difficulties.

I specialise in helping people overcome problems such as depression, anxiety (whether due to worry, obsessive-compulsive disorder, health anxiety, or intrusive thoughts), and sleep disorders (such as insomnia, nightmares and early waking) so they can feel better and function better in day to day life again.

Hi! I’m a friendly and experienced psychotherapist who is UKCP and MBACP registered. I believe everyone is capable of change and making the best of their lives. I listen carefully without judgement and provide a safe space to develop a positive and trusting relationship to work through problems and issues. Sometimes these difficulties can be a reaction to a situation or perhaps a more deep rooted issue that affects the way we communicate or behave - possibly we are seeking support for something we are simply unable to fathom alone. Everyone has their own presentation and way of being - we will work together to meet your needs.

Some days it can feel a bit too much. Do you exhaust yourself trying to cope with whatever life throws at you? Even when you feel worn out, close to boiling point or increasingly flat inside? You may feel a need to show yourself strong and capable even when you don’t feel like that. You might treat others a lot better than yourself. This is likely to place a huge toll on your mind and body; perhaps even on the very relationships you put so much into. You can learn to carry less of life's burdens by yourself and get more out of your precious time. What dreams have you given up on? What would you do if you could?

My ideal client would be someone wanting to gain self-awareness and insight into themselves. A person who is ready to seek a space for exploration and wants to use it to find out who they are, not what society and other people are telling them they should be, but their authentic voice. The client would want to find greater freedom by exploring the life journey they have been on and what this has meant to them. It's not for me to tell the client what their goals are but for me to provide them with a therapeutic space so they can find out for themselves.

You may want only one session or you can book as many as you feel is necessary. 45min Sessions range from £52.75 book http://www.empower-counselling.online/ I offer online & in person Psychotherapy.

Ruth-Anne Sammes is a therapist trained in psychodynamic psychotherapy who works one on one with adults online. She works in a collaborative way, viewing the client as the expert in their life, although acknowledges that often the things that bring us to therapy can leave us feeling lost, stuck, or hopeless, and anything but an expert. Ruth-Anne sees therapy as a process of both learning and unlearning.

Taking the first step to finding help can be difficult and confusing. I offer a discrete and compassionate service for individuals wishing to seek professional advice for a wide range of mental health issues. We start with a comprehensive assessment and devise a plan for treatment based on your individual needs.
