Hi, I’m Dr. Martecia “Tecii” Oates, the creator of Oneee Step Ahead (OSA). I designed OSA to provide affordable, accessible services and tools for individuals navigating life transitions. Alongside this program, I also own and operate Talks with Tecii, a virtual private practice where I serve clients in Colorado, Florida, and Oklahoma.

In my counseling practice, I’ve had the privilege of working with people during some of the most pivotal moments in their lives—whether it’s adjusting to college, stepping into a new career, navigating relationships, or simply figuring out the next best step forward. What I noticed is that so many people need structured guidance, accountability, and practical strategies outside of the traditional therapy space.

That’s why I created OSA—an educational coaching program designed to help you not just cope with transitions, but move through them with clarity, confidence, and direction. My goal is to give you straightforward tools, flexible support, and a roadmap so you feel empowered to create lasting change in your life.

Dr. Tecii💗
