Ms Ellen Rugg

Psychotherapist

For over 30 years I've helped women to have better relationships with themselves and others. I'm a believer in the power of group work, and offer several mid-life women's process groups. Group provides a unique opportunity to learn more about yourself while benefitting from the wisdom and perspective of other members

About Me

I help women foster richer relationships with themselves and others. My practice offers mid-life women's process groups, a unique setting for personal exploration. Here, you can gain deep self-understanding. You’ll also benefit from the shared wisdom and perspectives of other members. This collaborative approach is ideal for women seeking connection and insight during this life stage.

Approach

You’ll find the work moves between quieter personal reflection and lively group feedback, with attention to the small choices that shape daily life. In Seattle or online, sessions are paced to fit your rhythm—short check-ins, deeper personal exploration, and group moments that gently test new ways of relating. We use practical tools for stress, transition and identity questions alongside empathic witnessing so change feels tangible between meetings. This way of working tends to suit women seeking thoughtful connection and steady growth.
