About Dr. Ruth Alice Morgan-Jones

Dr. Ruth Alice Morgan-Jones brings 40 years of clinical experience supporting individuals, couples, and families through relationship difficulties, grief, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, mood disorders, and a wide range of life transitions. Her work spans concerns such as anxiety, stress, anger, intimacy and sexual issues, eating and sleeping problems, self-esteem, ADHD, bipolar and depression, as well as caregiving and chronic illness matters. She combines long-standing clinical expertise with a focus on empowering people to move forward and make meaningful changes in their lives.

She trained initially as a social worker at the University of Chicago, where she earned an MA, and later completed a PhD at the London School of Economics; that research became a book on the impact of hearing loss on family life. Early in her career she trained with Relate, the UK relationship charity, and she also holds a diploma in Family Therapy. She founded the charity HearSay to support individuals with special needs and their families and served as its principal clinician for 12 years. Those experiences contribute to a practical, informed approach to complex family and relationship dynamics.

Initially trained in psychodynamic methods, she now practices eclectically, drawing on client-centered ideas from Carl Rogers, Jungian perspectives, cognitive approaches, and systemic understandings to tailor therapy to each person or couple. She has a particular interest in intercultural relationships, has conducted research in this area, and is currently writing a book on the subject. For the past 10 years she has provided diversity training for charities and agencies. Dr. Morgan-Jones is a registered senior accredited member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) and works from a values-based, compassionate stance. She is a Christian and is married to a priest.

Therapeutic Approaches Online and How They Help

Dr. Ruth Alice Morgan-Jones integrates Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy into her clinical work. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns of relating and can be helpful for people struggling with intimacy, abandonment, or attachment issues. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the client’s perspective and personal growth - the therapist offers empathic understanding and support to help clients find their own solutions for stress, self-esteem, and life transitions. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at underlying emotional patterns and history to uncover recurring themes that affect current behavior and relationships, which can be useful for long-standing relationship difficulties, trauma responses, and identity questions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Dr. Morgan-Jones works collaboratively with each person or couple to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts her approach as progress unfolds to ensure the best possible fit.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering practical flexibility for busy schedules and those who live at a distance. These formats make it easier to access regular support, maintain continuity of care during life changes, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable while working with registered professionals and therapists.
