Meet Emily Ruth
Hi there,
I’m really glad you’re here. Reaching out is a meaningful step, and my hope is that you feel welcomed, respected, and supported from the very start.
I believe in the healing power of therapy and in the value of the everyday things that help us feel human: movement, rest, nature, laughter, and connection. We’re all works in progress, doing the best we can, and capable of real change.
My practice is inclusive and affirming of all identities and lived experiences. I’m committed to creating a space grounded in respect, curiosity, and ongoing learning.
I bring together NARM®, Brainspotting, somatic awareness, and differentiation-based couples work. With an MA in Marriage & Family Therapy and specialization in trauma, I offer a grounded, compassionate space to explore patterns that feel stuck and reconnect with your deeper capacities.
Alongside my clinical work, I serve as the host of the Transforming Trauma podcast for the Complex Trauma Training Center (CTTC). This role is an extension of how I listen, how I stay curious, and how I remain in relationship with the evolving field of trauma work.
Hosting the podcast invites me into ongoing, in-depth conversations with clinicians, researchers, and practitioners who are deeply engaged in understanding trauma; not just as a set of symptoms, but as a lived, relational, and developmental experience. These conversations continually orient me back to what matters most: presence, complexity, humility, and respect for the adaptive intelligence of all of us as humans.
Whether you’re navigating relationship challenges, trauma, grief, or a sense of disconnect from yourself, we’ll work collaboratively to create more clarity, freedom, and connection. My style is warm, honest, and steady. Sessions are available in-person and online. If you’re curious about working together, you’re welcome to book a 15-minute consultation to get a feel for the process.
When not with clients, you can find me on a walk with loved ones around my neighborhood, snuggling with cats, or camping somewhere in the pines or desert.
I hope to connect soon!
