Getting to know Ruth Her

Hi there, I'm Ruth! Welcome to my profile! My name is Ruth Her, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s in Social Work from California State University, Stanislaus. I'm happy you made the choice to find what I hope may be a safe space to express your thoughts and feelings. Not knowing what to expect from therapy can sometimes make us feel some sense of anxiety. This feeling is normal and understandable. Especially now, it is very important to take care of our mind and body. There is so much happening around us and to us. It is so important to take time to look after our mental health and well-being. During our first therapy session, it is my intent to set your heart at ease and introduce myself to you. I will answer your questions, explain the pathway forward, and hear your hopes and desired outcomes. Each person's journey is unique to them, and so I will honor your individuality. Through empathy, compassion, personalized guided treatment plans, and a listening ear, we will see you to a brighter day and stronger future. My approach My approach toward helping is by first listening and taking a holistic view of the client. Success is best accomplished by starting where the person is at emotionally and psychologically. Establishing a foundation from which the pillars of a strong treatment plan can be built is critical. I will not force a person to immediately talk about the deep-rooted problem they might be facing. I focus on understanding the layers of challenges a patient struggles with, recognizing that each layer may be deeply impacting the next. Through an unrushed process, I work through and analyze the patient’s view of the world and their adversities. I create a welcoming environment to facilitate difficult conversations, safe spaces to jointly explore options for pathways forward, and develop plans based upon the individual's assessed needs, resources, support network, and established best practices in mental health and well-being.
