Frances-Anne Ruddy

Hello, I’m Fran and I offer short and long-term psychotherapy for individuals and couples who are having difficulties.

We are living in strange and difficult days due to the corona virus. If you are scared, anxious or lonely, if you’re struggling to manage angry feelings, if you are missing your loved ones, or if someone close has passed away, it might help to talk to someone who will understand how you are feeling, and who will listen to you without judgement.

If your relationship with your partner is having problems due to the lockdown or for any other reason then I can support you as a couple.

I am now offering face-to-face consultations again because I can be Covid-19 secure. I am also offering phone consultations and consultations via Zoom. Please ring or text me on 07522 109106, or if you prefer you can email me at franruddy@btinternet.com.

I work with individual people and couples from my therapy room, and can offer you a warm, empathetic and confidential space where you can talk freely about your experiences and current difficulties.

My fees are £60 for an individual and £80 for a couple.

Specialising in every kind of abuse and all sorts of trauma, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), I also have considerable experience in working with a range of difficulties, including difficult childhood experiences,  loss, anxiety, depression, stress, bereavement, low self-esteem and confidence, anger issues, personality disorders, addictions and relationship problems.

I have a Diploma in Psychotherapy which helps me to understand why you may feel or behave in a certain way and which may be holding you back and causing upset and confusion in your life and affecting you and others around you. Through talking together, I can help you understand your thoughts and feelings, and together we can move towards a happier, healthier you.
