I'll help you reconnect with your inner strength and resilience, moving past the painful experiences that may be holding you back.

Are you experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, emotional overwhelm, or a significant life transition? Perhaps you’re noticing recurring patterns in your relationships, struggling with self-criticism, or feeling disconnected from yourself despite your efforts to move forward. Genuine connection, recognition, and attunement are central to my approach to therapy. I believe meaningful change develops through a collaborative relationship in which you feel genuinely heard, understood, and respected.
I’m Erica, a California Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), bringing over 20 years of experience in mental health treatment and wellness, including extensive clinical work in inpatient psychiatric care, intensive outpatient treatment, and psychotherapy. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, relationship difficulties, grief, ADHD, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions. As a former athlete, I also work with athletes facing performance anxiety, perfectionism, and identity concerns. I welcome individuals seeking practical strategies for managing symptoms, as well as those interested in developing a deeper understanding of their emotional experiences, relationships, and sense of self. I provide online psychotherapy throughout California, including Los Angeles, the San Francisco Bay Area, Orange County, and San Diego. My work integrates evidence-based treatment, relational attunement, and a whole-person perspective, with care tailored to your individual needs, circumstances, and goals.
My name is Tanasia Betts and I am a licensed professional counselor. Here's how I can help you reach your goals.
Trauma
Many people struggling with anxiety and depression are carrying the effects of unresolved trauma. Together, we'll explore the experiences and patterns that continue to impact your life while using evidence-based approaches to support lasting healing. In a safe, supportive space, you can break unhealthy cycles, build resilience, and reclaim your sense of peace and purpose.
Christian Counseling
I believe healing is strengthened through both faith and therapy. I integrate evidence-based counseling with biblical principles to help fellow believers navigate life's challenges, find hope, and experience emotional, mental, and spiritual growth in a supportive, Christ-centered environment.
Couples Therapy
Every relationship faces challenges, but you don't have to navigate them alone. I don't take sides—I choose the relationship, creating a safe space where both partners can feel heard, rebuild trust, strengthen communication, and reconnect. If you and your partner are ready to invest in your relationship, I'd be honored to walk alongside you.
I work with all ages and I'm trained in trauma based therapies such as CBT, DBT, and EMDR. I offer individual therapy using attachment based therapies, solution-focused brief therapy, and Gestalt self-compassion techniques. I'm not currently offering couples counseling except through private pay. I have worked with foster youth, caregivers, families, LGBTQ, and veterans. I have found my work to be professionally rewarding by assisting people in reaching their goals. I’m committed to meeting your needs and learning.
Hi, I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who believes meaningful change begins with a genuine therapeutic relationship. I value authenticity, curiosity, and creating a space where clients feel respected and accepted for who they are. I consider it a privilege to walk alongside people as they navigate life's challenges and discover their own resilience.
Hi, welcome to my practice. I support individuals, couples, and families through the complexities of life transitions. Whether you're adjusting to a new relationship, navigating parenting challenges, or facing unexpected life changes, I offer a safe, supportive space to help you reconnect with yourself and your relationships. I have over 30 years of experience as a licensed therapist and more than three decades leading personal growth workshops
I believe therapy works best when people feel comfortable being themselves. I aim to create a supportive, non-judgmental space where clients can talk openly about what they’re going through. Outside of therapy I enjoy gardening, creating art, practicing mindfulness, and spending time with my kids and pets, which all help keep me grounded and present.
