Hi, I’m Shanae Benito, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and National Certified Counselor (NCC) dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with support, compassion, and practical tools for change. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, stress, and life transitions. My approach combines evidence-based practices including TF-MCBT (Trauma-Focused Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy) while creating a space where you feel heard, understood, and seen. I believe healing is not about having all the answer. It's about taking the next step forward together.

Hello and welcome! I believe therapy should feel supportive, practical, and human.

Healing and growth doesn't require having it all figured out before you start — it begins with curiosity. Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, difficult relationships, or simply feeling stuck, therapy can be a place where you slow down, make sense of your experiences, and begin taking steps towards your best possible self.

I'm an LPC in Georgia with over 3 years of experience working with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction, and I especially work well with people who know something needs to change but aren't quite sure where to begin. I've worked especially well with people with addictions, looking for stability and self-sufficiency.

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.

Taking the first step toward change can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to do it alone. With more than 30 years of experience in behavioral health, I have had the privilege of working with individuals of diverse backgrounds, and I've helped adults and adolescents navigate emotional challenges, addiction, behavioral concerns, and co-occurring disorders. I believe everyone has the capacity for growth and lasting change. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and goal-focused, helping you build on your strengths, identify meaningful goals, and develop practical strategies to create a healthier, more fulfilling life.

I specialize in working with adults and adolescents (ages 16 and older) experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, addiction, emotional challenges, and dual diagnoses. I also have extensive experience helping older teens and young adults navigate adjustment difficulties, emotional concerns, and behavioral challenges.
