About Rita

Rita DiVenti is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 15 years in the mental health field. She helps adults 18 and over who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationships, and big life changes. Her approach is straightforward and centered on practical steps that clients can use day to day.

Rita treats people with respect and dignity. Sessions focus on partnership - she and the client decide what to try together.

Background and approach

She avoids labeling behavior as simply right or wrong and instead looks at what helps each person move forward. Her work draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques and a strengths-based view. Sessions may include structured skill-building or gentler, more reflective conversation depending on what feels right.

A little humor is sometimes part of the work when it fits. Rita pays attention to communication patterns and relationship concerns, including divorce and separation issues. She also addresses mood disorders and supports people working on self-love and women’s life concerns.

Goals are set to be realistic and practical for everyday life. Clients can expect a calm, collaborative space to talk through problems and try new ways of coping. Rita helps people find tools that suit their comfort level and daily routine.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Rita lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Online support

Evidence-based approaches for online care

Rita uses a handful of evidence-based techniques that focus on practical change. Cognitive behavioral approaches look at how thoughts and behaviors interact and teach clear skills for managing anxiety and low mood. These methods help people learn specific tools to reduce worry and change unhelpful patterns.

She also draws on humanistic and strength-oriented work that highlights a person's existing resources. This approach involves listening closely, reflecting what matters to the client, and building on strengths to support self-esteem and life transitions. Together these methods suit both structured skill work and gentler personal growth.

Finding the best approach is part of the process. Rita collaborates with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. She will adjust the plan as progress is made and new priorities emerge.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can be useful for quick check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, family, and daily life.
