I am a bilingual therapist that uses a culturally competent lens to empower individuals. I utilize a down to earth, genuine, and caring approach to help clients build resilience, heal from life’s challenges, and unlock their own strengths.

I am the first person in my family to attend college and to this day the majority of my family does not speak English. My family raised me in a culture where family and relationships are highly valued. I feel very fortunate to have blended cultural values and morals, as this helps me better understand others from different cultures. Are you struggling with crippling guilt and anxiety? Are you caught in a spiral of worry or stress you can’t stop, constantly second-guessing yourself?

Hi. I'm Marquita and I've been a social worker for 15 years and counting. I strive to help my clients navigate this challenging journey we know as life. Sometimes on this journey, we experience things such as anxiety, depression, life changes, set backs, and other bumps in the road, but what I've learned is that we can almost always navigate through or around them and keep on going. I use some conventional as well as unconventional techniques to work with my clients. I like to start where you are and not where I think you should be. We will use a mixture of cognitive behavioral, behavioral, mindfulness, and many other techniques to help us solve problems that we identify. I say "we", because we will do this together, but I allow you to drive. That just means I trust that you know yourself better than I do, but I will strive to help you find out just how strong you are and empower you to thrive in your life. We can do this together!

When we are no longer able to change a situation-we are forced to change ourselves,” noted psychiatrist and holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl stated. Life can present a myriad of situations where we experience growth, but at times not without pain. When those situations get unmanageable, sometimes an unbiased third party can be an excellent solution. Perhaps your relationship is on the rocks or maybe depression, PTSD, or anxiety have rooted in you. You don’t have to struggle with these symptoms forever, we can work together to better manage and overcome them. I work through a person centered, feminist and systemic lens which considers what affect our upbringing, social circle, work/school, and general life experiences have on our behavior, relationships, and overall feelings. My goal is to help individuals and couples work through internal and external conflict to reach your full potential. Reaching out for help can be understandably intimidating, and it is often through our fears and challenges that we make the biggest changes. As we work together, we will move at a comfortable pace to meet your needs and goals.

I provide therapy for individuals, couples, and family members struggling with behavioral, emotional, or relational issues of any kind (not limited to substance use) or for someone who just wants a safe space to process the week's events. I'm a licensed therapist in Texas & Florida and have acquired years of experience working in a professional recovery setting and have been a part of the recovery community for more than 14 years. I work with anyone wanting therapy for any number of reasons with a specialized focus on (not limited to) substance use disorders (SUD). I love working with individuals with SUD or substance misuse as well as family members of an individual with substance use concerns. I will work with couples if one or both have a substance use issue. I specialize in working with people that need any type of SUD care, however, I work with anyone needing a safe space to process life's happenings. We are all in recovery from something!
