Welcome to Elements Therapy! My name is Ruth and I am a qualified psychotherapist working with adults and children.
I understand that seeking help for mental health issues, either for yourself or your child, can be a daunting task. However, if you are reading this you have already taken the first brave and crucial step towards a brighter and more vibrant future.
I hope this digital space gives you an insight into my practice and a flavour of what I can offer to you or your child. I also offer a free 20 minute introductory consultation so that you can ask any questions and find out more with no commitment.
It's time to start feeling better.
If you are looking for a qualified counsellor or psychotherapist to work with online via Zoom, face to face indoors or outside in nature then please allow me to introduce myself.
I have a background in psychology and education and am qualified in Person Centred Therapy. I work with children and adults to develop a safe, warm, accepting, therapeutic relationship in which issues or trauma can be worked through gently and at the pace of the client.
I believe passionately in the therapeutic value of the natural world and am pleased to offer ecotherapy sessions in Lytham St Annes.
I am also trained in Person Centred Expressive Arts Therapy and so my clients (young and old) are welcome to express themselves through a range of creative media if they so choose.
I have a wealth of experience of working with people who are neurodivergent. For example, people diagnosed autistic or ADHD, those who self-identify as autistic or those are on the ND Pathway. Please see my neurodiversity affirmative therapy page for details.
I am also a Breathworks accredited Mindfulness Champion and can lead mindfulness sessions in groups and one-to-one indoors or outside in nature.
I saw Ruth for grief counselling when I was struggling. After 8 sessions I feel lighter and my PTSD symptoms have reduced.

I believe that high quality, personalised counselling and psychotherapy should be accessible to all and that you shouldn't have to join a long waiting list to get it.
My rates are affordable and I offer discounted rates for children and those in financial hardship.
Contact me to arrange a free 20 minute introductory consultation.
