About Eve Ruby | Therapist in Georgia & Washington State
“I gave myself care when it wanted destruction
And that is when my healing began”
-Juansen Dizon
As a therapist, I am deeply committed to providing a safe and supportive environment for everyone, recognizing the richness that comes from diverse experiences and backgrounds.
My therapy practice focuses on:
Empowerment for BIPOC Communities
Prioritizing and empowering Black, Indigenous, and People of Color, recognizing their unique experiences.
Promoting HAES: Celebrating Body Diversity
Embracing body diversity and promoting weight-neutral care within the HAES (Health At Every Size) framework.
Affirming and Uplifting Queer Experiences
Celebrating and supporting Queer lives and experiences with understanding and affirmation.
I hold a Master of Social Work from The University of Vermont.
I am currently licensed and seeing clients as a Licensed Independent Clinical Social worker in the states of
Washington and Georgia.
When we increase our somatic awareness of sensations such as temperature, pressure, and movement, it provides us with a source of information and a deep way of connecting with ourselves and our needs. I am particularly passionate about working with those who identify as BIPOC (Black, indigenous, and people of color) who have historically been harmed and marginalized by traditional mental health services.
About My Approach
Helping You Heal: Understanding Your Story Through Caring and Supportive Therapy
I approach therapy from a relational psychodynamic and attachment-based framework, strongly influenced by intersectional feminism and trauma-informed care practices. I also believe that our individual health cannot be disentangled from our collective wellbeing and therapy is only one of many paths towards healing. I aim to hold space for the complexities of your story and navigate a path to understanding your experiences and their impact. In doing so, I hope to support you in feeling a greater sense of freedom and agency in the world.
I work individually with adolescents and adults using a blend of emotion-focused, narrative, feminist, multicultural, attachment-based and somatic approaches. My intersecting identities inform my multicultural counseling perspective as a queer woman and biracial/black therapist of color. I believe that we cannot separate our emotions and experiences from the body that holds them.
I currently live in the Atlanta area but am still seeing Washington clients virtually.
