Hi, I'm Ruba

Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)

I work with adults navigating anxiety, overthinking, chronic stress, burnout, and self-doubt. Whether your mind rarely slows down, you're feeling constantly on edge, or you're struggling to feel confident in yourself, you don't have to navigate it all on your own.

My approach is integrative, combining meaningful reflection with practical strategies and mind-body awareness. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel heard and understood, while also gaining insight and developing tools to navigate life's challenges.

What Guides My Work

I don't believe therapy is about fixing what's wrong with you. I'm more interested in understanding how your experiences have shaped the way you think, feel, and respond to the world.

The ways we cope often develop for a reason. Whether it's overthinking, avoiding difficult emotions, or feeling the need to stay in control, these patterns may have helped us navigate challenges at one point, even if they're no longer serving us.

I also recognize that our experiences affect more than just our thoughts. Stress and emotions can show up in the body, influencing how we feel and respond to situations. Understanding these connections can be an important part of our work together.

My goal is to help you make sense of these patterns while developing new ways of responding that feel more intentional, manageable, and aligned with who you are.
