About Marquetta
Marquetta Johnson is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress and anxiety. She works with clients facing addictions, depression, low self-esteem, panic attacks, and life transitions. Her tone is respectful and compassionate, aimed at making the first step feel more manageable.
She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts conversations to each person's needs. Sessions focus on practical skills for coping, building motivation, and improving confidence. When panic or control issues appear, she helps clients learn ways to respond rather than react.
Background and approach
Marquetta brings eight years of experience to her practice and holds credentials as an LPC and LPCC. Her background includes supporting people through grief, trauma and abuse, anger, and challenges at work. She tailors plans to the situation instead of using a one-size-fits-all approach.
Her work style is collaborative and straightforward. Clients can expect clear goals, gentle challenge when needed, and regular check-ins on progress. Marquetta emphasizes small, doable steps so change feels achievable rather than overwhelming.
Sessions are offered from Missouri and conducted in English. She will work with each person to design an approach that fits their schedule and goals, focusing on real-life strategies for everyday problems.
How therapeutic methods translate to online care
Marquetta uses evidence-based techniques that focus on teaching coping skills and changing unhelpful reactions. One common approach involves skill-building for anxiety and panic - learning breathing and grounding strategies, testing fearful thoughts, and practicing responses to reduce panic symptoms. This helps people regain control over sudden anxiety and repetitive worry.Another approach centers on motivation and behavior change for addictions and low mood. Sessions concentrate on small goal-setting, tracking progress, and breaking tasks into manageable steps so clients can build momentum and confidence. These techniques work well for life changes, career stress, and relationship challenges.
Finding the right method is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose or adapt approaches based on their goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful in practice. Changes are reviewed regularly and plans are adjusted as needed.
Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues. Phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging let clients keep momentum between sessions and fit support into busy days. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, family, or travel.
