Rita Chand Registered Therapeutic Counsellor
Hey there! My name is Rita. I am a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor and a Certified Shame-Informed Treatment Specialist. I think it’s fair to say that we all hit rough patches in life. It takes a boatload of courage sometimes, just to reach out for a little support.
Life’s full of twists and turns, and I get it. Whether you’re wrestling with major life transitions, struggling with body image or self-confidence, navigating the murky waters of dating and relationships, or feeling the weight of workplace bullying, you’re not alone. Trust me, I’ve been there. I offer you a safe place to land to learn and grow from.
I also work extensively with people who are dealing with body image and confidence issues, post-bariatric, those on GLP-1 medications for weight loss along with any other challenges and struggles related to this area. I have first hand experience in this area as I too have worked hard to work through the challenges associated with body image related struggles.
I believe we all deserve to live the happiest and most fulfilling lives we can, and sometimes we have obstacles to overcome. I consider it a privilege to do this work, and I’m here to listen, support, and guide you through whatever life throws your way. Let’s tackle this journey together.

Mele Smallwood
In my practice, I create a safe, inclusive, and non-judgmental environment where you can feel seen, heard, and understood.I believe that each person is the expert of their own experiences and has the capacity for positive change. While I work with a variety of concerns, such as anxiety, relationship difficulties, and low self-esteem, I am particularly passionate about working with adults who are navigating the impacts of childhood trauma. I help clients move through difficult emotions and improve their emotion regulation skills, gain a deeper understanding of the patterns that may be keeping them stuck, and develop effective coping strategies to navigate challenges. I use an integrative and trauma-informed approach to counselling, blending various evidence based therapies while emphasizing autonomy, trust, and feelings of safety. Different approaches work for different people, and you deserve support that is unique to you. Together we will develop a plan that best suits you and your needs.
