For years my website was impersonal and spoke in the third person about me and my collaborative work. I hope my new site, with its teaching videos and client quotes will give you a more personal sense of who I am and how I relate to each person or group I work with…

I hope to stand in my essence here as well as in my accomplishments. I hope to allow you to see me as I will see you, in wholeness.

Together we reveal the unseen with curiosity and acceptance. We hear the unheard with compassion. We speak the unspoken in courageous honesty. We find insight and bring it out in the open in safety.

We manifest the not yet manifested. We laugh together lightly, sometimes outrageously, at the absurd moments of our humanity. Our work is accessible, experiential and non-academic. The goal is to take away valuable techniques for self-direction.

I am an insatiable learner. Each session is a learning for me and my clients. I am a certified body-centered psychotherapist, certified hypnotherapist, enneagram teacher, international workshop designer and facilitator, Reiki master, artist, writer, actress, director, coach, interior designer and so on. It is my intention to bring all these skills together in unique encounters of waking up, empowerment, and healing.

“Ruthie is an amazing personal growth facilitator. Her knowledge, intuitive insight, and honesty has helped me to embrace and understand, with courage and strength, my fears, frustrations, and anxieties.”  
– Lily, Producer and publicist
