Finding a therapist who truly gets your life can feel like a long search. One who sees more than a diagnosis, who doesn't need you to explain yourself before you can get to work. If you're part of the LGBTQ+ community, that search often comes with an extra layer: the quiet work of figuring out whether this therapist is actually safe, or whether you'll spend your sessions educating them. With me, you won't have to do that work.

I'm a licensed therapist with more than 22 years of experience in mental health and addiction treatment. I've worked in community mental health centers, psychiatric hospitals, correctional settings, and private practice. I've sat with people in some of the hardest moments of their lives and know how to meet them there without flinching.

My primary focus is LGBTQ+ individuals and couples. That includes navigating identity, coming out at any stage of life, relationship dynamics unique to queer and same-sex partnerships, internalized stigma, minority stress, and everything that comes with living authentically in a world that doesn't always make that easy. I also work with anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, substance use and dual diagnosis, men's issues, and stress and burnout.

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.
