★★★★★★★★★★Laura PetersonApr 2025

My boyfriend and I saw 3 different therapists at this practice- each individually and one together as a couple. This has been so great for our relationship and as individuals. We have learned so much through this process and have so many new tools to use- our relationship is thriving. 10/10 recommend!

Highly recommend Dr. Anita and her Practice!

★★★★★★★★★★BrianAug 2024

I started seeing her while I was single, and thanks to her guidance, I am now happily in a relationship. From the very first session, I found Anita to be incredibly professional while also maintaining a down-to-earth demeanor that made it easy to open up and have honest conversations. Anita is very knowledgeable, providing a variety of tips and info backed by research that are applicable for anyone in any stage of their relationship or marriage. What I appreciate most is her ability to tailor advice to fit my unique situation. Even before I entered a relationship, her support was invaluable as I worked through personal growth and understanding what I wanted in a partner. If you're looking for guidance in your relationship or marriage journey, I highly recommend Anita. Thank you Anita for your amazing support!

I do not recommend for married couples or anyone struggling with a mate with narcissistic behavior.

★★★★★★★★★★Stacy Perkins Smith, LCPC, NCCFeb 2020

After knowing Anita professionally for many years, I can tell you she is an expert rock star of a therapist who's entire goal is helping singles and couples work through struggles so they are able to have relationships that get better year after year. If you are struggling with dating or with your partner and wondering where to turn....having a expert in your corner can make all the difference. Anita and her team can guide you to figure out what went wrong, how to work through the challenges and then teach you evidence based strategies that can help you maintain happy and healthy relationships for years to come. I HIGHLY recommend Relationship Reality 312! There really is hope!

★★★★★★★★★★Nicholas HousmansNov 2018

Anita is a nice person, she's given me some good advice with my online dating profiles and pictures, however when I asked on how to approach women, she's not really giving me good advice or perspective on how to do it.
