Rūta Arnold
Clinical Psychologist
“I am a clinical psychologist and a psychotherapist in training. My work offers emotional support and a mirror into my clients' lives, helping them to understand themselves better, discover the resources and pathways that are right for them, to help them cope with their difficulties, and perhaps to live a more authentic and fulfilling life with ease. My work is based on the idea that each human being's experience, feelings, thoughts and worldview are unique, authentic, driven by internal motivation and worthy of respect. There is no one answer that fits all. ”
