Client's best suited to my specialties and approach are those that are honest, open-minded and willing to do the work needed to bring about healing and change. I am comfortable working with clients of any religion, spirituality, ethnicity, nationality, culture, accent, gender, gender identification, sexual orientation, ability, disability, education level or lack thereof, political preference, style of speech and any kind of background, as long as they are over the age of 18. I have the most training and experience with victims of any kind of abuse and/or trauma, as well as those with substance abuse issues.

Thank you for considering my approach to healing! I work with clients from diverse backgrounds to address sex therapy related issues (i.e. sexual "dysfunction," enhancement of pleasure, sexual identity development, etc.) and trauma related to interpersonal violence, attachment wounds, and systemic oppression. I work predominantly with sex workers, queer and trans clients, kink clients, polyamorous clients, and community organizers. Ultimately, I am passionate about helping all clients expand their view of what is possible for their lives and let go of shame.

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. Today's challenges can be very complex and what I love to do is help my clients tap into the talents and strengths they already have to remind them just how great they are. You can do this!

You're not broken, and you don't need to be fixed, but we can all benefit from support, coping tools, and an accepting space to process the chaos of life. In therapy, we'll work on healing shame, anxiety, depression, doubt, overwhelm, and that pesky inner critic. Then, we'll have the space to embrace pride, confidence, joy, optimism, and your whole, beautiful, magical self. I'm a queer therapist with ADHD, and I love working with neurodivergent and queer clients in their Quarter-life stage! I have experience working with anxiety, burnout, perfectionism, panic, depression, grief, body image, and couples (ENM inclusive).

Do you feel both not "good enough" but also "too much?" When my clients come to me, they're tired of trying to appear like they have it all together when everything feels like it's on fire. They feel overwhelmed by life and by trying to get everything "right" and keep everyone else happy. They want to feel less stressed, less anxious, and feel more satisfied in their relationships and life. If you're struggling with similar feelings, I can help you learn specific skills and strategies to manage the stress and anxiety, have more fulfilling relationships, and overall enjoy life more.

You do not have to have lived through something literally life-threatening to be a trauma survivor. If you didn't get your basic or emotional needs consistently met during infancy and early childhood, you likely struggle in your adult relationships. You might be overly clingy, avoidant, or self-sabotaging with your friendships and romantic partners. Or maybe, for you, it shows up as anxiety, avoidance, dissociation, low self-worth, poor boundaries, and even self-destructive behaviors. This is called complex trauma or attachment-based trauma, and it can be healed!

I believe in empowering clients to make the best choices for them. It often feels like we are along for the ride without realizing the opportunities to create change in our lives. I understand that therapy can be a difficult and sometimes uncomfortable process. In session, you are in the driver’s seat, and I am your navigator. Ultimately, you are in control of getting to your destination. Together, we can discover the where and how.

Welcome to the search for a sacred healing space with genuine safety and trust. In my 25+ years as a clinical psychologist, I have repeatedly witnessed this truth: taking the risk to begin a therapeutic relationship is an act of both bravery and self-compassion. Therapy can and should be empowering and transformative. In my work I seek a balance of gentleness, nurture and challenge with those who entrust me with their stories; my clients have shown me that deep change is possible. My specialties include complex trauma, women's sexuality, spirituality & anxiety disorders.

Often, life's challenges get in the way of us reaching our fullest potential. If you are struggling to manage the highs and lows, you are not alone. I believe in the importance and healing powers of human relationships. My passion is helping individuals, couples, and families strengthen and preserve the bonds with the people who hold the most meaning in their lives. Through the process, my clients are given the space and support to reveal more authentic, embodied versions of themselves.

Life is all about relationships. Relationships with ourselves, our loved ones, and our community. While relationships can often bring us great joy, they can also generate feelings of anxiety, depression, and uncertainty. Through our therapeutic partnership, I will help you build the skills to better manage these disruptive feelings and gain insight into your behaviors, ultimately allowing you to find balance and fulfillment.

Are you tired of feeling overwhelmed, stressed, rushed? Feeling down or blah, and wondering what’s missing? Maybe you are in transition or dealing with a difficult situation or relationship. Having a safe, nonjudgmental space in order to explore your life may be exactly what you need.

I see psychotherapy as a partnership and a process, where the client is the expert about their own life and the therapist is a guide. My emphasis is on helping clients change unhelpful behavior and thinking patterns that prevent them from building and maintaining positive and lasting relationships. The core of good therapy is based on building a relationship of trust, empathy and respect for the client. I provide an environment of safety and trust where we can explore issues, fears, concerns, and hopes. My goal is to transfer knowledge, skills and confidence so, eventually, you won’t need me!

Do you love video games? Comic books? Dungeons and Dragons? Do feel nervous or afraid all the time? Or sad, disconnected? Have you ever felt like an outcast, misfit, or weirdo? Have you ever asked yourself "Is any of this even real?" or "Am I an NPC?" If so, you may have just found your therapist. I work with geeks, nerds, dorks, and dweebs, LGBTQIA folx, the Kink and Polyamory/ENM communities and people of all cultures and spiritualities. So let's play Minecraft while you process, write fanfic about overcoming adversity, or if you're brave, use Dark Souls to practice coping with big emotions. Makes therapy sound kinda fun, right?

You seem to have it all. You’re highly successful, ambitious, and supportive of those around you. Underneath, you are scrambling to hold it all together, feeling rushed, angry, burned out, and pulled in every direction. You feel like screaming every time you are asked to do one more thing at the expense of your own wants and needs. You suffer silently, or sometimes in outbursts, from the stress and overwhelm. Feeling resigned to meet the needs of others, you believe you just have to get through this.
