LaQuinta is a dedicated Licensed Professional Counselor in Training pursuing a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Bellevue University. She is committed to developing the clinical expertise and practical experience necessary to complement the strong foundation she has built throughout her graduate training.

With a client-centered approach, LaQuinta brings empathy, cultural sensitivity, and a grounding in evidence-based modalities — including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) — to her work with clients. She is currently expanding her clinical repertoire through training in Reality Therapy. LaQuinta is passionate about serving diverse populations and delivering compassionate, culturally responsive care.

She holds a particular commitment to supporting African American women and men on their mental health journeys, and to actively working to dismantle the stigma surrounding mental health within the Black community.
