| Thank you so much to Karla for her warmth and guidance. I came to Karla with a constant reoccurring period of worry; which would come about at a certain time every year. Karla helped me realise what was really at the centre of this worry and taught me simple ways to manage this worry; as well as dig a little deeper and work on why I felt like this every year. I really enjoyed working with Karla. She offered different ways of exploring my thoughts. |
I approached Ruth because I was advised by my GP to consult a counsellor about my anxiety. Ruth helped me by providing a safe and calming environment to discuss how I was feeling as well as offering useful coping methods. The result was effective because I now feel able to cope better with situations that arise daily which I couldn’t before. One thing I liked was her proffessionalism and friendly character. I would recommend Ruth to people who need advice and direction in managing difficulties they face in their lives.
All of us humans including myself have grown up with the stigma attached to counselling or as also know attending a shrink. I came to a rocky part of my life where I felt extremely down and unable to cope with life. I was dealing with a very busy work environment while also keeping family life on the right path. After attending my GP who prescribed short term medication to take the edge off I also felt I needed additional help. I attended counselling with Ruth who was extremely helpful. She listened to what I had to say, how I was feeling and after a few sessions I quickly learned that suddenly I was getting a lot of my mind and mentally feeling like a huge weight had been lifted off my shoulders. My view is for anyone who may be feeling this way to please take that first step to the rest of your life, open up your feelings which does really help. Sometimes it’s hard to open up to your true feelings with family and friends who do not completely understand you. Fantastic work Ruth and thank you so much for all your help.
Ruth is an absolute star! She really helped me through a very hard time in my life, listens to you and makes you feel better about your current situation! Would highly recommend her to anyone going through a tough time as she helps you move through it and make you realise its not permenant!! Iv always been a sufferer of anxiety and panic attacks, ruth really helped me open up and see the light at the end of the tunnel!! Excellent service, xx
Went through a bad break up and heard about Solas Counselling (now The DMC Clinic) services from a friend. I found the service very useful, was great to know someone was there for support and to listen.
Always comforting
Ruth really helped me through a rough patch. She was very professional and helpful. I cannot recommend her enough.
