Great to meet you!

My name is Tia Baker and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor licensed in both Georgia and Florida and the owner of Restoration and Wellness Counseling Center. I’m passionate about creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can feel comfortable being themselves while working through life’s challenges.

I work with adults and teens experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, codependency, low self-esteem, life transitions, and challenges with setting healthy boundaries. My approach incorporates evidence-based techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies.

I believe therapy should be more than simply talking about what’s wrong. My goal is to help you understand patterns, develop practical coping skills, establish healthier relationships, and feel more confident making decisions that support the life you want to create. I bring compassion, authenticity, and encouragement into the therapy room while also helping clients challenge thoughts and behaviors that may be keeping them stuck.

My approach to therapy

I strive to create a comfortable, non-judgmental, and confidential environment for clients to heal and process through issues that interfere with reaching their life goals. In my therapeutic approach, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and Narrative Therapy techniques. I am passionate about promoting mental health and wellness.

I offer culturally diverse counseling services to individuals and couples in-person and via telehealth. Make the first step to overcoming life challenges by scheduling an appointment today.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is a safe, supportive space for us to get to know one another and begin identifying what you would like to gain from therapy. We’ll discuss what brought you to counseling, the challenges you’re currently experiencing, and the goals you would like to work toward.
