Rita Martino

Rita is a Marriage and Family Therapist, an Ordained Minister, and Licensed Avatar Master. Rita majored in Philosophy, with an emphasis on Heidegger's Phenomenology. She has been facilitating Soul Integration through coaching, counseling and Spirit-led healings since 1980. Both her clinical and private practice incorporate the use of individual constellation work. Rita's work is compassion in motion. The results are more authenticity in life, along with deeper connections with self and others.

Rita has been interviewed on public radio and newspapers on such topics as suicidality, depression, stress and the increase in teenage bullying.

Rita had the privilege of being introduced to the work of Family Constellations by Peter deVries in 2001. Peter is a Certified Family Constellations Practitioner and also a Facilitator Trainer. Rita trained under Peter for five years.

Rita comments on her learnings in Family Constellations:

"I have a true heart passion for this work, and a deeply grateful heart to Bert Hellinger for pioneering the healing awareness of Family Constellations. I am also thankful for all of the advanced practitioners I have been honored to work with and learn from over these many years. From this, I have realized a passion in my life and living by serving humanity through fostering reconciliation.".

Rita has been involved with Family Constellations for the past eight years.   This is THE HEART that leads Rita's life.
