TESTIMONIALS
I came across Sarita’s website and was very impressed with how her business was set up – in fact, wondering if it was too good to be true and if it could actually deliver. Without hesitation, she absolutely delivered! From our initial meeting where she shared her knowledge and listened to my practice needs, to selecting virtual and billing assistants for me to interview, to the ongoing assistance that has been provided – my experience has been wonderful. Sarita has provided a lot of guidance and practice suggestions as I transitioned to both a solo practice and completely updated to electronic systems. She frequently checks in with me to make sure I am satisfied and offers continued assistance and training to my VAs to ensure they are proactive, rather than reactive, to practice procedures. Without hesitation, I highly recommend Sarita and her team. Her thorough vetting process assures staff are qualified to work in mental health, and her customer service cannot be beat.

I cannot say enough good things about Sarita and her team. I was in desperate need of an assistant to keep my business going while my team and I attended to clinical work. Sarita listened to my needs, and paired me with Kelsye – who was a gem. Kelsye jumped right in and took over the role with professionalism and ease. All the admin work I had on my plate was taken care of and my stress level dropped immediately. Sarita's service is exactly what you need to run your business while you do the work you love.

Throughout my time with Sarita Turner Mental Health Virtual Assistance I had a sense of comfort knowing my Virtual Assistant was handling claims, billing, phone calls and so much more. Not only was my assistant extremely responsive to my needs, but they had the ability to understand my Practice and anticipate my needs in advance. They helped me to create systems that will be with me for years to come. I was able to relax knowing I could trust my assistant to handle my toughest issues and solve them in a timely manner.

Kimberly is genuine and exceptionally organized. She anticipates my needs before I even think of it. She is independent and professional. Recently, she had not only one, but two, incredibly difficult situations to handle. She didn't have to do that by herself- she could have reached out and said, "this is above my pay grade," but she handled it all with incredible respect and dignity and great boundaries. I was prepared to step in and never actually needed to. That is way beyond what I expect of a VA. It makes me feel as though she's invested in my practice and I so appreciate it. I think Kimberly is incredible- I am grateful every day I landed with her as my VA. I hope she sticks around a long time!

Sarita Turner Mental Health Virtual Assistance is the company you need if you are looking for a competent, well-trained assistant, but don't have time (or interest) in training one yourself. Sarita takes great care in her interviewing and vetting process as well as gets to know you, as the customer, to ensure a successful match. She has done the work herself as a VA for therapists for several years, so is intimately aware of what therapists need. The support her employees receive is timely and focused, so that they, in turn, can provide you with the support you need.

If there is one decision I have made that has elevated my private practice across the board, it is hiring a mental health virtual assistant through Sarita Turner. Sarita herself is a gem and it is clear that she cares about her clients and their businesses.
I enjoy working with her as much as I enjoy working with my assistant Nikki. Nikki is excellent at her job and a treat to have as a co-worker. I feel taken care of between these two and can move my energy into areas that serve my clients and talents better.

Running a business is not easy, but being able to do it with peace of mind is a game changer. I love owning my own mental health group practice and it has been amazing being able to focus on the parts of it that energize me knowing that the billing side is solid. Norlisha is amazing! She picked up my systems very fast and is able to stay on top of all her tasks well. She has the top 2 qualities I need from a VA – she is extremely competent and personable. My team and I love her and feel very grateful to have her as part of the team 🙂 I highly recommend Sarita Turner Mental Health Virtual Assistance, it will be a huge asset to your business.

I interviewed and completed consultations with several VA companies and Sarita felt like she really cared about my needs for my practice. She felt like she wanted to support my goals and aid in reducing my stress. She also gave great tips and advice before we even got officially started which was helpful in my search for a VA and when I got a VA…My VA, Reisa, is responsive, proactive, and is really working to help me reach my goals with my practice.

I was looking for someone who I could trust talking with my patients in place of me, and I didn’t believe a generic assistant would be sensitive enough to the unique needs of mental health patients. Using gender affirming terminology and conversation is a top priority for my practice, and Sarita was able to match me with an assistant capable of this in addition to being experienced communicating with patients in mental health.

I could not be more grateful for the services provided by Sarita and her virtual assistance service. My virtual assistant, Dana, is absolutely amazing. I cannot speak highly enough about her and what an amazing job that she has done helping me get my practice in order! Sarita has been wonderful around communication, being flexible with managing hours, and I would recommend her service to anyone in need of support running a busy private practice, or in need of support with things you didn’t even know you needed support with! Wonderful agency, wonderful experience. Highly, highly recommended!

I wanted to reach out to let you know how AMAZING Reisa is. She is so organized and skilled and well-versed in my area of expertise. I absolutely LOVE working with her. We are a great match! I LOVE Reisa- she has been life changing! She is fantastic! Thank you for everything!

Sarita's company entered my life when my practice was at a professional crossroads. Sarita took the time to listen and understand about my practice and my professional needs. She also asked questions about my strengths and weaknesses so that she could pair our company with someone who matched our communication style and rounded out our team. We have been supremely pleased with our VA Leigh Ann. She has been an integral part of our practice and success thus far. Contracting with a VA has been the best professional decision I have made.

Sarita Turner leads with professionalism and expertise. Her passion for supporting her clients shines through every aspect of her services. After our first phone call I knew this was the thoughtful, personalized support I was searching for.
Sarita has a thorough vetting process for her assistants. She presented me with the resume, recommendations, and relevant information about my potential assistant so that I could make an informed decision. I am pleased to say that I matched with an assistant who is an excellent fit!
As a solo practitioner, I needed support that would grow along with my practice. It would have been nearly impossible to grow my practice and focus on client care without the attentive and expert support of ST MHVA.
I highly recommend ST MHVA to any practitioner no matter the size of your practice. Being able to focus more on client care and practice growth while focusing less on administrative tasks has been the best private practice decision I have made.

Sarita is great because she trains and vets VA’s so you can feel at ease when you hire your VA… My VA, Michaela, has taken over tasks that I would have done myself on off work hours and I find myself to be more present with clients.

I had a really good conversation with Sarita on the phone and she was helpful in providing an assistant that was reliable and professional. I don't have to work late into the night answering emails and phone calls anymore!

Sarita is one of the most organized and helpful people I have worked with. She is quick to learn new things, and she seems to get real satisfaction from solving difficult problems. In the course of our work together, Sarita has not only set up a smooth system for our regular insurance billing needs, but she has also helped solve some of our most challenging debacles that inevitably arise in mental health insurance billing. As the founder and director of a family counseling center, I literally could not do my job without the support and time-saving efforts of Sarita.

Sarita Turner has been my virtual assistant, and she exceeded my expectations. She completes tasks efficiently and accurately. She follows up on loose ends until each task is complete. She takes the initiative, so I don’t have to worry or keep reminding her what still needs to be done. Yet she knows when to ask for my input. She is proactive in recognizing potential problems as well as potential solutions and improvements. She is flexible and responsive. I can’t recommend her highly enough!
