About

Ruth Grouden

European Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy

Hello and welcome,

Do you have a feeling that things in life are not going well? That life does not feel quite right at the moment and you find it difficult to share/expose this to friends or family? Are you feeling anxious or depressed about something? Maybe you are feeling stressed, upset about past or current events which are affecting your life or way of being now?

Getting in touch with me will be a good place to start on your road to recovery/self-discovery and together we can work towards peace of mind.

I have 20 years experience and the ability to help with a wide range of issues including anxiety and depression, stress or despair. My aim will be to help you get the best out of your life and encourage you to reach autonomy.

I am a humanistic counsellor based in Bromley, specialising in person-centred and integrative counselling therapy. I also specialise in bereavement counselling and understand the feelings that loss can bring.

I provide a safe haven for my clients to explore their lives and situations in complete confidentiality; a calm, comfortable, safe space to help you explore your feelings and guide you on your journey to reach your goals and find ways to manage what you are experiencing.

In this space you can be heard by me in a non-judgemental and empathetic way and feel safe to express yourself freely.

All you will need to do is contact me to have a brief conversation about what it is you would like to achieve from counselling and then we can set a date and time.

I am also aware that some people may find it difficult or stressful to leave the privacy of their own homes to come see me, therefore I also offer an online counselling service via Zoom. I have found that this service has provided a safe route for many of my clients who like to cross-dress but do not feel at ease leaving the security of their homes.
