Kathleen Ruiz
LPC
Therapist/Clinical Supervisor (She/Her)
About Kathleen Ruiz
My personal philosophy is grounded in the belief that every person has intrinsic worth, dignity, and the freedom to choose their own path. I believe that my first priority as your counselor is to meet you wherever you are at in your journey and to make a commitment to walk alongside you and guide you on a path toward health, wellness, and life. I also believe that I have a duty to model and encourage personal responsibility throughout the therapy process. In addition to being a support, I can serve as a coach and educator, offering tools and empowering you to take ownership of circumstances and characteristics that you can change.
My personal interests involve working with crisis and trauma. I can work with you to learn how to manage triggers using trauma-informed mind-body approaches. I am also passionate about the role that nutrition plays in mental health and can work with you on utilizing healthy dietary and exercise habits to positively impact your mood and well-being.
A strong relationship is key in moving forward in therapy, and I will take time with you to establish a strong foundation of trust. I look forward to walking with you on your journey!
