Tanasia Betts

Tanasia Betts

Therapist

Virtual • Georgia


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.

You may be carrying a lot beneath the surface while still doing your best to show up for work, relationships, family, and everyday responsibilities. Anxiety can leave your mind constantly running, depression may make it harder to feel like yourself, and ADHD or chronic health concerns can add another layer of exhaustion when you are already stretched thin. I work with adolescents, adults, and seniors experiencing anxiety, depression, LGBTQIA+ concerns, cultural and ethnic issues, and physical health concerns. These experiences can also overlap with women’s issues, family concerns, trauma, PTSD, chronic conditions, grief or loss, or relationship challenges, especially when your health, identity, relationships, and emotional wellbeing are all influencing one another. Therapy can give you a place where the different parts of your experience are understood together. Together, we can make sense of what has been weighing on you, strengthen healthier ways of coping, and help you feel more grounded and connected to yourself.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

I was born and raised in one of Nigeria’s vibrant and bustling cities, where I learned the values of community, resilience, and compassion from an early age. Inspired by a deep desire to make a difference in people’s lives, I pursued my education in health care. This journey has been a blessing and a privilege, allowing me to work in health care and provide care for the people I love and serve.

My family and I have built a home filled with love and laughter. They bring joy and inspiration to my life every day. I'm excited to support my clients in bringing that same love and joy and laughter back into their own lives.

If your child is struggling with big feelings, hard behaviors, or school-related stress, you have found a safe place. I have worked alongside kids, teens, and their families since

2005, creating a playful, welcoming space where they can finally feel understood. I draw from play therapy, AutPlay, and creative approaches tailored to your child's

personality and developmental stage. I also partner with caregivers, teachers, and other supports so your child is not doing this work alone. My goal is to help them

understand themselves better, build confidence, and feel more in control of their emotions and choices.
