Bio

I am Ruth Y. Woods, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I have been in the mental health field for over 15 years. My experience lent itself to working with all genders and ages. I love to help women find their purpose in life which helps to decrease depression symptoms. I gain joy in teaching coping skills and watching clients use them to decrease episodes of anxiety, depression and family issues. I also assist men with identifying areas that hold them back, and making therapy an affirming experience. My special population is the teen. They appear to be difficult, but once they let you in, you can change the future. I am trained in trauma and EMDR. I work to help clients understand what trauma is and how it has impacted their life so that healing can begin. I can partner with you to unlock doors that keep you from achieving the peace and purpose that awaits you. Open Doors Counseling, Coaching and Consulting, LLC is a solo practitioner practice. You will receive exclusive one on one care from the time you call until you are discharged from care.
