I am Anita M King, licensed marriage and family therapist. I work collaboratively with clients to help you get where you want to go. I received my degree from Chapman University and have been working with clients since 2018. I know what it is like to work harder not smarter and feel like for every step forward there are many steps back. I am fully passionate about getting you unstuck and where you aspire to be. I am passionate about helping people define and live your values to achieve a more authentic life and to help create stronger relationships.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together I will spend some time getting to know each other and the issues that brought you into treatment. This is done in a conversational manner. We will review any assessments, questioners and collaborate to create a individualized treatment plan. I have a late cancellation and no show policy if less than 24 hours notice a fee of $100 will be charged to you, the client.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My strengths are empathy, collaboration, and action planning, along with a sense humor.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
If you are looking for a therapist to start working with you from day one, I am that therapist. I will work with you to create an individualized plan to address your needs. I have experience working with high achieving women, college age, individuals, couples, families and children from diverse cultures and backgrounds. I utilize a conversational approach with empathy and humor. Through values exploration I will help you identify priorities and make decisions based on your own personal value system.
