Nervous-system-led therapy, training & retreats.

At Reset Wellbeing, we work with the body — not against it. Supporting Growth, regulation, and sustainable change through compassionate, integrative practices.

Hello, I’m Ruth.

I’m an Integrative Therapist, Accredited Trainer, and founder of Reset Wellbeing — and I came to this work through lived experience.

After navigating my own mental, emotional, and nervous system health, alongside autoimmune disease and invisible disability, I retrained in the very practices that continue to support my wellbeing today. These approaches are not quick fixes — they are lifelong, nervous-system-led ways of relating to ourselves with greater safety, compassion, and trust.

This is the foundation of everything I offer.

I support people navigating grief, trauma, life transitions, and difficult diagnoses through:

1:1 nervous system therapy

The 12-Week Reset Programme

Evening group sessions & retreats for those seeking a deeper, embodied exploration of their mental, physical, and emotional landscape

Alongside this, I train practitioners and facilitate spaces for professionals who wish to deepen their trauma-informed, somatic, and nervous-system-aware practice.

People work with me online or in person at my dedicated studio in Barry, South Wales.

My work blends science-backed therapeutic modalities with embodied, creative, and somatic approaches.

Rather than focusing solely on talking, we explore why the nervous system responds as it does — and, importantly, how to work with it.

Clients and trainees are supported to:

Understand their unique nervous system and behavioural responses

Build practical, sustainable tools for regulation and self-management

Create meaningful change that lasts beyond the therapy room

This approach consciously differs from traditional talking therapies and one-size-fits-all wellbeing models.

As a trauma- and nervous-system-informed practitioner, I facilitate safer, compassionate spaces using a blended, integrative approach, including:

Compassionate Inquiry

Parts Work & Inner Child Work

Functional & Therapeutic Breathwork

Sound Therapy

Holistic Art Therapy

Somatic Reprocessing

Because being well is not linear — and it’s never the same for everyone.

If you’re curious about working together — as a client, practitioner, or organisation — I invite you to explore the site and reach out with any questions.

The sound bath I went to with Ruth, was so blissful and so relaxing. Ruth makes you feel at ease straight away with her calm voice and professional manner. Fabulous. 5 stars.

I went for a 1:1 session with Ruth where she performed reiki, a sound bath and talking therapy.
She was absolutely fabulous.
She was very knowledgeable and professional throughout and made me feel very comfortable.
Thank you so much Ruth! Can’t wait for another session.🙏🏼

Ruth is so kind and thoughtful. She always picks up on how you are feeling and adjusts the sessions to be best for you.

I took my dad for a Sound Bath at Ruth's and it was wonderful. The set up is so welcoming and relaxing even before you start. We loved the tea ceremony and hand cleansing, it really did set you up for the experience you were just going to receive. The Sound Bath was beautiful and me and my dad left feeling cleansed and invigorated. Thank you so much Ruth. You are such a kind soul and we can't wait to come back to your welcoming sanctuary.

A beautiful day, spent with the best bunch of ladies, most of whom I'd never met. A retreat for women, providing a safe and supportive space made possible by the special collaboration between my amazing coach @jesswilsonpt and the wonderful @reset_with_ruth with their specialisms complimenting each other beautifully.

Attended by Women with open hearts and minds, investing in and prioritising their physical and mental wellbeing. Demonstrating strength 💪 in more ways than one. After a very tough week, I left the event feeling calm and mentally at peace, and had the best night's sleep.

Highly recommended to anyone who might be interested in future opportunities.

Ruth delivered a community session as part of our ‘Festival of Wellbeing’ and the response was fantastic - everyone loved it. Ruth was wonderful to work with, brilliant communication and prompt responses. Could not have asked for a better collaborator. Thank you!

I attended my first breath work workshop last week, I had little idea what to expect, Well it was amazing, Ruth is a fabulous tutor, the studio is perfect. I have menopausal insomnia and struggle to get 4 hours of 40% quality sleep. I left the work shop ‘floating’ I slept for 8 hours at 89% quality. It’s years since I felt that good. Thank you can’t wait to return.
Ps also highly recommend Ruth’s sound bath xxx

Wow! You can't argue with those stats! Thank you SO much for sharing them, and your experience at Reset. Your feedback is so valuable and I'm excited to welcome you back. Xx

Ruth is the most beautiful soul and I’m eternally grateful that I found her on my healing journey. Ruth has been an integral part of my healing and I’ll be forever grateful. She is so kind, compassionate and warm, and the healing energy that she exudes is profound. I’ve attended private sessions along with group sessions and I’ve left every single one of those sessions as a more healed version of myself. Thank you for everything Ruth, the world is so lucky to have you and the beautiful work you do

Attended a wonderful Reset session with Ruth. I attended on my own and was made to feel so welcomed and at ease. Ruth explained the session well and introduced us to emotional inquiry and some beautiful oils, before easing us into a magnificent sound bath. I will definitely be attending another. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Response from the owner 19:12 02 Feb 25

Had such a lovely experience from start to finish, very welcoming and well organised you could really see the attention to detail in everything that was set up for us and how it was set up, fantastic venue, beautiful country side and sea side, home cooked vegan, gluten free and dairy free meals catered to all. I’m so grateful that I took the opportunity to come on the retreat, i definitely got what I came for out of it as well as a lot of extra tools to help me on my journey, if your looking to delve deeper in to your emotional/ spiritual blockages then this is definitely the retreat for you, I felt empowered, recharged and invigorated when I left! Thank you Ruth

What a lovely wintering reset session. Time out to rest and reflect ????

Update: I can't add a separate review so having to tag on to my last one.
* I have just attended a therapeutic retreat weekend. The setting, treatments, opportunity to explore and elevate self awareness was wonderful. This unique experience would not have been possible without the care, meticulous planning, trauma aware space and expert treatments/interventions from Ruth. Thank you for being so patient, kind, thoughtful, reassuring, and providing a physically and emotionally nourishing weekend. Truly a brilliant practitioner x

The retreat was absolutely amazing, and truly one of the best experiences of my life. Not only feeling safe to be vulnerable in front of a group of women, but also watch them share their stories and do the same. We laughed and cried together the whole weekend, my mind has never felt so clear. Ruth is absolutely amazing at what she does, her knowledge and experience is to a very high standard, and her quality of work and results speak volumes. I will always be truly greatful to have found her because she has definitely changed my life ❤xxx

I have attended a few of Ruth's sessions from conscious connected breathwork and sound baths at the beautiful wellbeing hub, to sessions at the beach teaching us breathwork techniques for cold water therapy. Each time has been a truly unique and memorable experience. I've struggled with my mental health over the years, and breathwork has really had a huge positive impact in my life. Ruth has showed and encouraged me to explore it in much more intense way. She really is an amazing presence and fantastic at what she does. Whether you're looking to relax, meditate, connect with your body and mind on a deeper level, release trauma/anxiety or proccess grief then ruth will guide you through it every step of the way ????

First time going to reset with Ruth there was a welcome hug and a smile, I felt relaxed and at ease straight away ☺️

I particularly really enjoyed the sound bath ????????

The whole experience is well worth it can't wait to go again ????

Since moving to Barry last year I have been lucky enough to join Ruth at 3 of her different offerings. From breath work and a dip at Whitmore Bay to a 1-2-1 session and a siren circle. Each experience has been unique and truly magical. She definitely lives up to her name. After a session with Ruth you do feel reset, restored and renewed. Thank you x

I attended a session with Ruth on Thursday and although the session started slightly later than it should have Ruth explained we would still have the whole hour and apologised profusely to everyone who had arrived on time about the late start. Ruth ran a fantastic class, I only paid £15 for a whole hour of bliss in a beautiful setting with a beautiful lady. I will 100% be attending again. I also really appreciate the extra time you put into the class to show us some breathing techniques to use ourselves at home, this was priceless.

Ruth recently supported my Paseda360 annual MeTreat and took 14 of our guests through a breath-work session.
Ruth set the room up beautifully with rugs, pillows, eye-pillows, incense, music, sound-bowls and more. It looked fabulous.
She then guided us through a 90-minute session, during which she ensured everyone was well supported. It was a wonderful session and I have booked Ruth to return for next year’s event. She is professional, caring and an expert in her field.
