Hailing from a large
family in Atlanta, Georgia Anita was born with cerebral palsy. Both of
these aspects of her life have done much to teach her to be compassionate
and understanding of others. She has spent most of her adult life in
Virginia, and now considers it to be her home. She attended Virginia
Commonwealth University where she earned a Bachelor of Science degree in
Psychology (1977), a Master’s of Science degree in Counseling Psychology
(1981) and a Master’s of Social Work (1990).

Although she considers herself to be a
generalist, she has experience dealing with the emotional aspects of
physical disability, women’s issues, victims of domestic violence, and
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Married and a dedicated Christian, Anita
believes strongly that we all have the God-given capacity to
discover the answers to our individual problems. Therapy in her view involves
teaching her clients to recognize this inner capacity, and then to exercise it
in a collaborative relationship.
