“She is the best therapist I’ve ever had. She remembers what we discussed in every session. She shares a quiet story without dominating the session like my past experiences. She validates how I’m feeling, points out the facts, helps me find what’s most important in the issue, and leaves me with tools to help the situation. She is a great communicator when It comes to having to change appointments and setting up other payment arrangements. I really feel like she cares and is on my side.”

Getting to know Marquita Thomas-Buchanan

Hi. I'm Marquita and I've been a social worker for 18 years and counting. I strive to help my clients navigate this challenging journey we know as life. Sometimes on this journey, we experience things such as anxiety, depression, life changes, set backs, and other bumps in the road, but what I've learned is that we can almost always navigate through or around them and keep on going. I use some conventional as well as unconventional techniques to work with my clients. I like to start where you are and not where I think you should be. We will use a mixture of cognitive behavioral, behavioral, mindfulness, and many other techniques to help us solve problems that we identify. I say "we", because we will do this together, but I allow you to drive. That just means I trust that you know yourself better than I do, but I will strive to help you find out just how strong you are and empower you to thrive in your life. We can do this together!

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

I am grateful that I found Marquita. I had relocated and was seeking coverage for a year. I feel like I leveled up on my therapist which ultimately led to me leveling up for myself. She is authentic and holistic, but also intelligent and empowering. I leave every session feeling like I can tackle my challenges and be a better me for me.
