About me

My name is Marquita Turner I have been Licensed as a Professional Counselor in the state of Louisiana for 8 years. I recently obtained licensure in Texas as well. This work of helping others find peace and purpose in their lives feels like my innate purpose. Therapy is not always easy or enjoyable but if done correctly it will bring about a desirable change. I view the therapeutic process as teamwork for clients and myself. We become equal partners in identifying, processing and developing person-centered solutions to the issues you are facing.
I pride myself on being a great listener. This skill has helped me build rapport and trust with clients which both aid the effectiveness of the therapeutic process. I have worked in various mental health settings that afforded me the ability to treat most common and uncommon disorders. I can treat all DSM-5 diagnosis. At the end of this process it is my hope that you are closer to your authentic self and operating from your own place of purpose.

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Marquita Turner. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

Really pleased with my sessions, she’s like a wise friend that offers great advice and zero judgement. I was skeptical of therapy and being able to connect with a therapist, but her patient and attentive approach really helped with establishing a safe space to be vulnerable. 10/10 Definitely Recommend

Marquita is an exceptional therapist who is very easy to talk with. She is a good listener who organically helps me reflect on what is going on in my life. I really enjoy talking with her.

I felt comfortable with her from the very first session. Going to therapy is a new experience for me, and she took the time to explain how things would work & what to expect. She also checked in on me in between sessions.
