CONTACT USRita El Maraghi - Counselor/Psychotherapist
Certified Canadian Counsellor | Individual Therapy for Adults, Adolescents 16+, In Person or Virtually Across Canada.
Rita is a warm and attentive therapist who creates a space where clients feel genuinely seen, heard, and supported. With deep respect for each person’s story, she walks alongside those navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, self-doubt, and major life changes—offering presence, care, and clarity throughout the process.
Rita brings experience from various community mental health settings, where she has supported adults facing a range of challenges including depression, emotional overwhelm, low self-worth, and the desire for personal growth. She believes that healing happens in relationship—with oneself, with others, and within the safety of the therapy space.
Her approach is collaborative, non-judgmental, and attuned to each client’s pace. Rita blends evidence-based strategies with deep listening and emotional insight, helping clients uncover patterns, process their experiences, and reconnect with their strengths.
With compassion and curiosity, she supports individuals in building the inner resilience needed for meaningful change. For Rita, therapy isn’t just about coping—it’s about becoming more grounded, connected, and empowered in who you are.
