A Journey of Transformation, Words, and Wonder
I create spaces for healing, reflection, and transformation. Whether through Journey to Me™, my writing, or personal coaching, my mission is to help others reconnect with their authentic selves and move forward with clarity and confidence.
Embracing My Evolution
I am Rita Lynn Berry—a writer, speaker, poet, and thought leader—devoted to helping others find clarity, peace, and purpose. For over 30 years, I guided others as a counselor. Now, I have stepped beyond behavioral health therapy, embracing the vast world of storytelling, publishing, and personal transformation.
Through Journey to Me™ and Mend n Muse Media, I guide others in creating space for healing, reflection, and growth—whether through devotionals, journals, poetry, or transformative courses. My mission is to help you reconnect with yourself, embrace your story, and live authentically.
The Power of Words & Expression
Words have always been my sanctuary. From childhood spelling bees to poetry and prose, I have long believed in their power to shape, heal, and transform. Writing is more than a skill—it is a way of making sense of the world, a sacred space for truth and self-discovery. Whether through books, guided reflections, or spoken word, I trust that words hold the power to heal, inspire, and awaken.
A Creative Force on Fire
Storytelling is the thread that weaves my work together. Through faith, personal growth, and creative expression, I explore the deep intersections of poetry, philosophy, and spiritual reflection. I write to uplift and challenge, to awaken self-awareness, and to spark joy. This passion has led me to publish the Expressions of Love & Passion poetry series, along with transformative workbooks, devotionals, and courses—each designed to guide others on their path of self-discovery.
From Counselor to Creator
For more than 30 years, I have walked alongside others as a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, guiding them through life’s transitions. While I still hold my credentials, my mission has evolved—expanding beyond my therapy practice into the world of writing, teaching, and creative expression. Now, I connect with others through books, courses, and digital products designed to empower and uplift. My work blends psychology, spirituality, and personal growth, offering a holistic approach to transformation.
A Journey of Authenticity & Expansion
I am stepping fully into my essence—embracing every facet of who I am. Music, movement, storytelling, faith, and philosophy are not separate pieces, but interwoven threads of my journey. I am not meant to fit into one box; I am a tapestry of passion, purpose, and truth.
You are in the right place if you seek clarity, courage, or creative inspiration.
