 Jakita Reed, AMFT is a Relationship Therapist and Dating Consultant who works with individuals and couples to improve their dating lives and achieve healthy relationships! Jakita offers pre-marital counseling to help engaged couples set realistic expectations for their marriage, dating consulting to help men and women identify dating patterns, and relationship consulting to quickly resolve relationship obstacles to get back to connecting and deepening the bond with your partner.

Falling in love with watching soap operas on television as a child guided Jakita's natural role in helping peers sort out their relationship and dating challenges throughout the years. After a 3 year long-term, off and on relationship straight out of undergrad, Jakita met her life partner within months following her break-up, got engaged on her 1 year dating anniversary and happily said, "I do." three years later. Through her personal trial and error combined with specialized education in marriage & family therapy, Jakita has profound wisdom and a purposed desire to help men, women, and couples on their journeys to find the right person to spend their lives with. 

As an Associate Marriage & Family Therapist, Jakita earned her masters degree in marriage & family therapy in the state of Michigan.
