Like many people who end up doing this work, I found Shadow Work because I needed it. What started as my own desperate search for healing became the most transformative journey of my life, and eventually, my calling to help others find their way home to themselves too.
Does this sound familiar?
You know that feeling when you catch yourself reacting in the same old way – again? When you’re stuck in patterns that make logical sense but somehow keep you trapped? When you find yourself thinking, “I know better than this, so why do I keep doing it?”
Maybe you’ve spent years in therapy (and it’s helped!), but there’s still something underneath that talking doesn’t quite reach. Perhaps your meditation practice feels like putting a plaster on a wound that needs deeper attention. Or maybe your usual coping strategies just aren’t cutting it anymore.
Here’s what I’ve learned: sometimes we need to go beyond thinking about our patterns and actually experience them differently. Shadow Work lets us meet these stuck places with curiosity instead of judgment, and more often than not, something shifts in ways we never expected.
What if there was another way to respond to life’s challenges? What if you could walk away from one session with more resilience, creativity, or simply more choice in how you show up in the world?
My offerings
One-to-One Coaching: These are deep, unhurried sessions, 3 to 5 hours where we can really explore what’s calling for attention. We can meet in person at my home in London, or online, whatever feels right for you.
Women’s Weekend Intensives: There’s something magical about being held in your own process, and witnessing others break through too. Join Emma Godwin and me for a whole weekend in a beautifully restored barn in East Sussex, with a small group of 6-8 fellow participants, 9-11 October 2026.
Testimonials
“Ruby’s skill and gentle support were nothing short of amazing. It felt like a really safe space, secure and nourishing. [After the session] I felt joyous, curious, more in touch with my inner child, and a deep sense of contentment […] I found my voice.” – Male, 62
“Historically I have struggled to feel safe around people, especially in the therapeutic realm, but I felt Ruby created a non-judgemental space for me to open up […] It was deeply emotional and I was able to release a lot. I felt Ruby was very much with me where I was and didn’t push me into anything when I wasn’t ready. I gained a lot of clarity as a result.” – Female, 30
“Working with Ruby was a deeply grounding experience during a difficult period in my life. She brought exceptional clarity, empathy, and guidance, making me feel completely accepted throughout the session. Through the work, I found a renewed sense of balance and faith, and that shift has stayed with me in the weeks since. I’d wholeheartedly recommend Ruby to anyone considering Shadow Work – she’s a fantastic coach!” – RB, 48
“The facilitators held the group with compassion and a strength that helped us progress through some, quite often, very difficult scenarios from our past experiences. Doing my own piece, I experienced a deep-rooted fragility and vulnerability but felt so supported by the facilitators and the group itself that I was able to work through and heal this and I can honestly say that wound no longer hurts. I came away from the weekend with a profound sense that something important had happened and when I looked over my journal I noticed I’d written ‘I’m smiling again’.” – Heather
About me
I started my own healing journey as a teenager when my mother and sister became chronically unwell. After years of trying different talking therapies, I had a language and an understanding around what was happening, but was stuck in the same old stories and emotional patterns.
In 2018, I found Shadow Work™ and everything changed. Over three years and around twenty intense sessions in groups or one-to-one, I experienced profound internal shifts: from self-doubt to self-love, from passivity to power, from grief to joy.
With these new resources available to me, almost every aspect of my life transformed – family relationships, physical health, community, creativity – so much so that in 2021, I decided to train in Shadow Work™ to help others change their lives too.
I certified as a One-to-One Coach in 2024, and became a Group Facilitator in 2025.
