Ruth Shaw (BA Hons), MBACP

Hello, my name is Ruth Shaw, welcome to my page. Are you feeling overwhelmed in your professional or personal life? Are you anxious, sad/grieving, feel unable to cope? Sometimes it can feel like life is spiralling out of control, but there’s no-one to turn to, no-one you can talk to about your difficult feelings and emotions.

Perhaps you don’t want to burden family or friends, or are afraid people won’t take you seriously, or might judge you or think badly of you?

Counselling is a good place to start working things out; Being able to stand back and calmly explore what’s going on in your life can give you increased clarity and understanding and the tools to begin to take back control.

I would like to offer you that safe space: where we can work together to bring you to the place that you want to be.

I work with a non-judgemental and compassionate approach. I aim to facilitate change and growth, and I believe this occurs as a result of the therapeutic relationship between counsellor and client.

I work in person, in Nottingham (Rushcliffe area), and online to increase my availability.

I understand this can feel like a big step. I offer a free 15 minute video meeting, or telephone call, where we can talk about what you want and what I can offer. There is no pressure to commit.

Please call or Email and I will get back to you within 48 hours.
