About Marquita
Marquita Wooley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who centers her practice on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside person-centered methods. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, and LGBT-related concerns. Her approach aims to create a calm space where clients can talk through feelings and begin to change at their own pace.
She holds a master’s degree in Counseling Psychology and brings 17 years of professional experience.
Background and approach
That background includes work in community mental health settings and hospitals across levels of care. Her experience covers acute and residential care, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient programs, and independent practice work. In sessions she blends Emotionally-Focused Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, and client-centered listening.
Conversations focus on clear goals and practical steps, such as building coping skills, improving communication, and addressing grief or mood concerns. The therapist tailors methods to fit each person’s needs. Marquita also offers support for issues linked to aging and caregiving, fertility and postpartum challenges, first responder and veteran-related stress, and multicultural concerns.
She aims to meet people where they are and move toward small, manageable changes. She provides services from Alabama and conducts sessions in English. People can expect a straightforward, respectful tone and a focus on practical tools alongside emotional exploration.

Online support
Emotion-focused work and online care that fits your life
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and work with strong emotions that show up in daily life and relationships. It focuses on recognizing emotional patterns and creating new ways to respond when difficult feelings arise. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches skills to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and to act in line with personal values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and uses practical exercises to change them and reduce symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, needs, and preferences and then recommend techniques that fit. That decision is collaborative and can shift as progress is made or needs change.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video lets people see facial cues during emotion-focused work, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins or when someone needs to write through a problem. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day and to continue work between in-depth sessions.
