Ruth Dixon, BACP

Ruth Dixon is a UK-licensed therapist who brings 20 years of clinical experience to her practice. She focuses on practical support for people dealing with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, family difficulties, anger management, confidence building, and the development of emotional intelligence. Ruth emphasizes a respectful, sensitive, and compassionate approach, tailoring conversations and treatment plans to each person’s individual situation and goals.

With a practice shaped by long experience, Ruth encourages those taking the first step toward a more fulfilling life and offers steady support through that process. She holds the BACP credential - membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which reflects her professional alignment with established counselling standards. Ruth’s work centers on collaborating with clients to find realistic, meaningful ways to manage difficult feelings and improve relationships, always adapting methods to fit the client’s needs and circumstances.

Clients who choose Ruth can expect structured, person-focused sessions that combine practical strategies and reflective exploration, aimed at helping them navigate change, rebuild confidence, and move toward clearer, healthier patterns of thought and behaviour.

Psychodynamic Practice and Remote Therapy Options

Psychodynamic therapy explores how past experiences, unconscious patterns, and emotional responses shape current feelings and relationships. Ruth uses this approach to help people understand recurring difficulties - such as ongoing anxiety, repeated relationship struggles, or entrenched patterns of anger - so they can make more informed choices and shift unhelpful habits.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself. Ruth collaborates with each person to identify which elements of psychodynamic work or complementary techniques will best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Ruth is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier for people to access consistent support from licensed professionals without needing to travel, and they allow therapy to fit more naturally into busy or changing lives.
