Hi there, I'm Rita! I'm here to serve your mental health needs with compassion and competence. All of us are on our own journey, and I'm here to help improve your quality of life along the way. I strive to instill hope, happiness, education, and positive changes with a comforting and holistic approach. My focus I see patients aged 18+ with symptoms of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, OCD, schizophrenia, ADHD, PTSD, and other disorders. I do not discriminate based on gender, sex, or pronoun usage and am an LGBTQ+ ally. My approach My approach is client-centered, and I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques and reality-based therapy modalities. I tailor treatment to provide individualized care. I complete regular education and read evidence-based studies to ensure the most accurate and acceptable care. My communication style I create a warm, empathetic, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel truly heard and supported. My sessions are collaborative, engaging, and tailored to your needs. Mental health should not be scary, and I thoroughly enjoy getting to know you and creating a healthy relationship to ensure your success. My journey to mental healthcare I've always been passionate about understanding the human mind and helping others navigate life's challenges.

Rita really listens to what you are going through. She is patient and thorough. She makes sure to give time to see how things are going and checks in sooner rather than later, making you feel confident in the next steps. I'm truly pleased with our working relationship.
Rita is compassionate, a great listener, gives reasonable and applicable guidance that drives results. Rita is the first psych medical professional that has fully understood me/ my point of view. I lost my husband at the holidays, then my job in March and need to sell my home and move across the country. Rita addressed each loss and stressor over the last 7 months with grace, and I have tangible and inner lifelong results.
