About Ruth

Dr. Ruth Alice Morgan-Jones brings four decades of experience to her counselling practice. She trained initially as a social worker in the United States and later completed a PhD in the United Kingdom.

She is a BACP member and has led a charity supporting people with special needs and their families. She now works in independent practice from the UK and offers sessions in English, including to international clients. Her background includes family therapy training and long experience with relationship difficulties.

Background and approach

She has worked with people facing grief, stress, anxiety, depression and caring responsibilities. She also supports those dealing with identity and intimacy concerns, eating and sleeping problems, career strain, and neurodiversity-related questions such as autism and ADHD. In session she blends several approaches.

She draws on attachment perspectives to look at how early bonds shape present patterns. She uses client-centred principles to listen closely and help people find their own direction. Jungian and psychodynamic ideas inform deeper exploration of meaning and recurring themes.

Practical aims are common in her work. She helps people improve communication, set boundaries, manage anger and cope with life changes. For parents and those in blended or intercultural relationships she focuses on workable strategies and clearer understanding.

She is experienced with trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue and chronic illness issues. She also offers help around adoption and foster care questions, ageing and caregiver stress, and body image or self-esteem concerns. Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging.

Online support

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships influence current patterns. It helps people understand why they react in certain ways and how to build more stable connections. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and empathy to help people find their own solutions and regain confidence in decision making. Psychodynamic and Jungian ideas explore recurring themes and deeper meanings, which can be useful for long-running relationship issues, identity questions or grief.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss different ways of working and will help identify what fits your needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and methods can be adapted as therapy progresses.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can suit quieter audio-only check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, writing through thoughts or fitting therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving or travel commitments, and to connect with a registered or accredited professional from different locations.
