Rita El Alaoui
Hypnotherapist, Hypnotherapy diploma, reiki master diploma.
Eating disorders are rarely just about food or weight; they are often deeply rooted in a subconscious need for control, self-protection, or emotional regulation. As a hypnotherapist, I help the client’s subconscious recognize that restricting, purging, or bingeing was a learned defense mechanism to cope with distress or trauma so I simply guide the subconscious to discover healthy, internal ways to feel safe and in control without using food or body modification as a coping tool.

Been there, done that myself. Only when I started to heal other parts of my life, have I been able to heal and break through my own eating disorders and finally be able to lose weight for good.

Canberra is Australia's purpose-built capital city and home to the federal public service, creating a therapy landscape shaped by the particular stresses of government work — including burnout, moral injury, and careers lived in close proximity to political power. The city has the highest median income and education level of any Australian capital, with a population generally comfortable seeking therapy and willing to engage in longer-term work. Canberra Hospital provides institutional mental health services alongside a well-established private practice community serving the inner south, Belconnen, and Tuggeranong. A recurring theme across many Canberra practices is the tension between personal values and the constraints of institutional work — a dynamic that cuts across much of the city's therapy culture.
