I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with a Master of Social Work degree from Fordham University and extensive experience providing psychotherapy, mental health assessment, and diagnostic evaluation across multiple levels of care. My clinical background includes work within a major hospital system, school-based mental health programs, and outpatient settings, where I have supported adolescents, young adults, and adults facing a wide range of emotional and behavioral challenges.
Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, family conflict, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, stress, and adjustment challenges. My experience in hospital-based mental health has strengthened my ability to conduct comprehensive assessments, develop individualized treatment plans, and help clients gain a clearer understanding of the factors contributing to their struggles.
I believe that meaningful change begins with feeling understood. My goal is to create a supportive, culturally responsive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel safe exploring their experiences, identifying their strengths, and working toward the life they want to build. Whether you are navigating a difficult season of life or seeking deeper personal growth, I am committed to helping you gain insight, build resilience, and achieve lasting change.
I’m a licensed mental health counselor who works with adults, couples, and young adults navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I’ve trained across schools, community mental health, and outpatient settings, and I bring a grounded, real-world perspective into the therapy space. My work is culturally responsive and shaped by a strong commitment to equity, identity, and whole-person care. I aim to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and able to grow.
Hi! I am a board certified DNP-PMHNP-BC. I started my career in traditional health practices as a Fulbright Scholar in Sochi, Russia. I presented my research at the US Embassy in Moscow. Following the completion of my grant I attended New York University (NYU). From there I completed a residency at M.D. Anderson Hospital in Houston, Texas. Following this I entered and completed my doctorate at USD University of San Diego, California with a focus on digital telehealth treatment for psychiatric care. I have a passion for working with the veteran population and those seeking care outside the box. I recently completed my facilitation for psychadelic assisted therapy and have an additional practice in Denver, Colorado. I enjoy yoga, swimming and all the water sports!
My name is Tanasia Betts and I am a licensed professional counselor.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Army Veteran with extensive experience supporting adults through a wide range of mental health and life challenges. Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use concerns, stress, burnout, relationship difficulties, grief, and major life transitions.
I have experience working with both civilian and Veteran populations and understand the unique pressures that can come with demanding careers, family responsibilities, military service, and periods of personal change. My focus is on helping clients develop greater self-awareness, emotional resilience, and practical strategies that support long-term growth and well-being.
Many of us, at some point in life, experience overwhelming and unpleasant feelings, such as persistent sadness, anxiety, grief, anger, loneliness, or stress. These may be the result of trauma, problems in relationships, stress because of work or school, loss, major life changes, conflicts, or unconscious/conscious self-defeating beliefs. However, no matter what has happened to us, we all have an innate ability to grow, to process, and to change. That fact that you are in this platform looking for help is already a great first step towards your healing process. I would very much like to help.
In my practice I provide strength and solution focused psychotherapy from a faith-based perspective (i.e. Catholic/Christian). This therapeutic process helps to empower you to take personal responsibility, resolve life problems, encourages you to advance towards desired goals, and promote healthy self-esteem.
I have over 10 years of experience providing psychotherapy services to teenagers, young adults, and older adults. The work that I do has helped people heal, improve their overall quality of life, improve spiritual growth, and their relationships.
