A Few Words About Me
Abi Ruivo, PGDip
If you’re anything like me I felt very overwhelmed the
first time I made the decision to access therapy around 12 years ago. What type is
best for me? What am I hoping to get from this? What if my therapist doesn’t understand
me? These are all perfectly natural concerns and very important questions
to explore, which is why I offer an initial consultation that is free of charge. This
can be done via call, video, email or text. You should feel informed and confident when
starting therapy that you have chosen the best option for your needs.
My Way Of Working
After starting therapy I then went on to have the most
profound and life changing experience of my life with my therapist. I decided from that
day
forward that I wanted do the same for others.
I spent the next ten years training, studying and working in various forms of therapy
to help me to connect with and understand each client and the difficulties that they
bring to our sessions.
After obtaining my Bachelors degree in psychology and since starting my work in mental
health in the NHS ten years ago, I have gone onto gain qualifications in counselling,
psychological therapies and cognitive behavioural therapy. I am fully accredited with
the BABCP which is the official therapy governing body for the UK. You can find me by
