About Marquetta

She acknowledges that starting therapy takes courage and offers a supportive first step. In sessions she listens first to understand what matters most to each person. She tailors conversations and plans to the individual's needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all method.

That means practical steps and small goals that fit into everyday life. Clients can expect clear options and gentle challenge when appropriate. Marquetta draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address trauma, grief, anger, and relationship concerns.
She helps people develop coping skills for life changes and career stress. For panic disorder and panic attacks she focuses on tools that can reduce intensity and frequency over time. She is licensed as an LPC and as an LPCC in Kentucky and practices with a Missouri location listed.
Sessions are offered in English and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Her style is respectful and sensitive while staying practical.
Early sessions focus on goals and manageable steps. Over time the work aims to build confidence and better daily routines.
Evidence-based approaches and online access
Marquetta uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and clear goals. One common approach she uses emphasizes skill training for anxiety and panic - teaching breathing and grounding methods and steps to reduce avoidance so panic attacks become less frequent. Another approach centers on coping strategies for addictions and depression, with attention to building motivation, routine, and healthier behaviors to replace harmful patterns.Finding the right approach usually happens together. She works collaboratively to choose methods that match a person's goals, symptoms, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress is made. Clients help set priorities and test techniques to see what fits best.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth or a quieter setup is needed. Live chat and text messaging are practical for shorter check-ins, quick coping reminders, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, school, or caregiving responsibilities.
