Abigail Ruth, LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York State. I have worked in various settings and capacities helping individuals from diverse backgrounds with depression, anxiety, stress, addictions, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, career concerns, and life transitions. In my work I find it useful to draw on a variety of clinical perspectives as each client brings to the process a unique set of needs, strengths, and goals. I love helping clients get unstuck from the patterns they live and relive over and over, whether it be in their jobs, families, relationships, or even inside their own heads.
I am passionate about offering a non-judgmental, open, and empathic environment so that clients feel safe in exploring their concerns. My approach is collaborative, interactive, and strength-based. I work from a belief that my role is not to “fix” clients but to support them in creating shifts in their lives from a place of choice and awareness.
I graduated from Oberlin College with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English. After college, I moved to New York City and worked for several years in film production and publishing. Eventually I decided to return to school and pursue my interests in psychology and social justice issues. I received my Master’s degree in Social Work from NYU Silver School of Social Work.
