Ruth Auguste

Ruth Auguste is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida. She has eight years of clinical experience helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and problems with self-esteem. Ruth offers calm, direct support for those facing major life changes and emotional upheaval.

Ruth draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques to shape sessions around each person. She listens for what matters most and adjusts the conversation and plan to match a person's goals and values. Her approach is respectful and compassionate, focused on practical steps people can try between sessions.

In sessions Ruth may help people learn skills to manage anxiety, name and shift unhelpful thinking, and process difficult memories. She also addresses body image, communication problems, guilt and shame, and workplace stress. Clients working through midlife transitions or questions about self-love will find targeted support for those concerns.

Ruth emphasizes collaboration. She will work with each client to set clear, realistic goals and check in on progress. Therapy is presented as a process of trial, feedback, and adjustment rather than a one-size-fits-all solution.

Taking the first step can feel daunting. Ruth aims to make beginning therapy straightforward by helping people clarify what they want to change and building a plan that fits their life.

How evidence-based work translates to online therapy

Ruth uses well-established therapeutic techniques in simple, practical ways. Cognitive behavioral approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Narrative techniques help people make sense of difficult experiences by reshaping the stories they tell about themselves and their past.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ruth will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit best for their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan when something isn’t working, so therapy stays aligned with what the person wants to accomplish.

Confirm current session options before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can still make regular care easier to fit into a busy life - it can save travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a workday, or reduce the time needed for appointments. Talk with Ruth about scheduling and format so sessions match your routine and practical needs.
