Hi there! My name is Rita. I am a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor and a Certified Shame-Informed Treatment Specialist and I have my Advanced Obesity Counselling Certification. 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 work extensively with people who are dealing with body image and confidence issues. I offer emotional, mental and identity support to those who are pre or 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. I would love to walk this journey with you.
