Ruth Patta, RCC

Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy
Registered Clinical Counsellor #12107
She/Her

Hello, I am Ruth. You are most welcome here.

I provide therapy to Couples, Family and Individuals. With over 11 years experience, I hold a Masters Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy (MA, MFT).

I believe in a collaborative and holistic approach to wellness which has its foundation in a bio-psycho-social-spiritual premise.

I also believe that people need to stay connected in supportive and purposeful relationships in order to effect change. Trained in family systems therapy, I work from the premise that when one member hurts, the whole system/family hurts.

I walk alongside my clients as we collaboratively unravel hidden possibilities and opportunities inherent in their struggles, challenges and pain. I do this by providing a warm nonjudgmental and safe therapeutic space for clients to explore change and growth.

I incorporate a wide range of approaches to meet the client at their points of need. These include Attachment Approaches, Brief-Solution-Focused orientation, CBT, Emotionally Focused Therapies (EFT), EMDR, Gottman and Satir Method.
