Mrs. Wooley is amazing. She really seeks to help you no matter what you are going through. Good or bad she’s either going to give you what you need to stay the course or give you what you need in advice to get better. She has really helped me and I’m forever grateful for her.

Hi, my name is Marquita Wooley. I received my Bachelors Degree in Sociology with a double minor in Religion and Abnormal Psychology and received my Master's Degree in Counseling Psychology. I am licensed in Alabama as a License Professional Counselor and in the great state of Texas as a Licensed Professional Counselor- Supervisor as well as a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist. I have over 15 plus years of professional work experience with an extensive clinical background in multicultural counseling working with families, children, adolescents, adults, young adults, and college students from diverse backgrounds. I enjoy working with active duty military, dependents, veterans and the civilian community. I have experience in community mental health treatment centers and hospitals with level of care that includes acute, residential, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient care and private practice. I am someone who sparks change in people’s lives and relationships. My goal is to help facilitate change at your pace by creating a supportive safe and non-judgmental space to explore your issues and thoughts. I lean mostly toward a person-centered approach, utilizing an eclectic of techniques, such as, cognitive behavioral, motivational interviewing, conflict resolution and humanistic to name a few, all tailored to fit each individual needs. Some of my areas of focus is, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, anger management, relationship issues, parenting, self-esteem, stress and sleep to name a few. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and goals to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Marquita has been absolutely amazing to work with. As a pansexual polyamorous individual I’ve found it hard to find therapists who “get” me. Marquita is always warm and welcoming and allows me to fully be my most authentic self while working through my issues at home, in my work, and with family. I’d highly recommend her!

Reviewed April 2024

Marquita Wooley helped me learn some techniques to cope with my almost daily paranoia. I learned that sometimes it’s good to be alert and cautious, but other times it’s okay to let your guard down.

Reviewed March 2024

While I have just started meeting with Marquita, it feels as though we have been paired for forever! Her attention to detail and engagement are IMPECCABLE. She makes you feel completely safe while also getting down to the nitty gritty in terms of what you want to accomplish in therapy. I am beyond excited to continue working with her and am confident in the person I’ll become for doing so.

Very helpful

Reviewed January 2024

I am greatly appreciative of Marquita. I’ve talked about some things lately I’ve never really talked about and have walked out the ost two sessions contemplative and taking a deeper dive into myself. I feel like she listens or at least tries to hear me because I feel like I drop a lot on her. But, I’m not uncomfortable and that says a lot for me.

Reviewed December 2023

Marquita is an excellent therapist, a kind and caring soul. She’s helped me immensely with stress and anxiety as I’m going through a divorce. She’s remarkably talented and insightful, and I’m grateful to have her in my life.

Reviewed November 2023

For the most part, I was seeking someone who I could share some of my life's issues with who would not be judgmental because I had a lot to unload. Fortunately for me, Marquita has been excellent providing necessary feedback yet being a great person to talk to. Glad I finally chose to use BetterHelp. I have been considering it for some time.
