Life isn’t always easy, and I’m not here to promise quick fixes or a “perfect” ending after just a few sessions. What I can promise is a genuine partnership rooted in understanding, empathy, and actionable solutions to help you feel better and move forward. You’re the expert of your own life and I’m simply here to guide, support, and collaborate with you as we navigate this very human experience together.
Here’s what I bring to the table, 13 years of professional experience as a licensed therapist, my personal journey as an empty nester and older millennial, and my love of holistic practices like walking in nature or soaking up the calm of the ocean (a perk of being a native Floridian). I specialize in helping clients work through grief, loss, motivation challenges, self-esteem and confidence struggles, career transitions, life changes, and executive coaching.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling life and take those first steps toward change. If you’re willing to be open, honest, and transparent, I’ll meet you with compassion, expertise, and unwavering support. Together, we’ll work toward a version of your life that feels more balanced, empowered, and authentically you.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

I was nervous about therapy at first but Lequita mad me feel comfortable. It’s like talking to a friend.
Lequita is great!!
Though I have only had about 4 sessions with Lequita so far, I feel completely safe talking to her. I have a hard time communicating my feelings and emotions at times, but with Lequita it comes naturally and easily. She helps me understand what I am feeling and thinking way more than I can on my own. I appreciate her gentleness, support, and especially her promotion of feeling what you have to feel to get through whatever you’re going through. She always reminds me that everything I am feeling is normal, and I NEED that!
Ms. Lequita is professional, direct and supportive. I greatly appreciates that she checks in via text through the app throughout the week. She provides worksheets that promote thinking and setting goals. She's a great listener and very easy to talk to.
I’ve only had three sessions with Lequita so far, and I already feel completely safe sharing anything with her. She truly respects my preferences for how I want to navigate therapy, which means so much to me. I really value her thoughtful feedback and appreciate that she holds me accountable with homework and worksheets (which I specifically requested). Starting the New Year with her support has me feeling incredibly optimistic and encouraged.
