About Ruth
Ruth Landis is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and anger. She brings 21 years of professional experience and aims to meet each person with respect and compassion. Ruth focuses on practical steps people can use day to day to feel steadier and more in control.
Her sessions are shaped to fit each person's needs. Ruth listens first, then tailors conversations and a plan that match the situation and goals.
Background and approach
She keeps language plain and works at a pace that feels manageable. Ruth has long experience helping people process trauma and strong emotions. She supports clients through moments of high stress and helps them develop ways to reduce anger and reactivity.
Her work also addresses relationship patterns and attachment concerns that affect everyday life. Many people seek her help for caregiver stress, guilt, shame, midlife transitions, and mood concerns. She pays attention to how these challenges affect daily routines and functioning, and she focuses on realistic coping strategies.
Ruth practices in Louisiana and offers care in English. She frames therapy as a joint effort and encourages clients to take small, doable steps toward change. The goal is clearer thinking, steadier emotions, and better ways to handle life’s pressures.
What Ruth works with
Everything Ruth lists, in the therapist's own terms. Anger is the reason this directory exists; the rest tells you what usually sits alongside it in Ruth's practice.
Approaches that help with strong emotions online
Evidence-based techniques focus on practical skills people can use between sessions. One common approach teaches emotion regulation and coping tools to reduce reactivity and manage anger episodes; it emphasizes recognizing triggers, slowing down responses, and practicing new behaviors. Another approach centers on processing trauma and its effects through paced, supportive conversation that helps people make sense of difficult memories and reduce their hold on daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Ruth will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts the plan over time based on what is helpful and what feels manageable.
Online formats make regular care more flexible. Video calls let people work face to face from different locations. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat or text messaging provide brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options let people pick what fits their schedule and comfort while continuing steady therapeutic progress.
