Hi, I am Edith. Thanks for being here!!

I graduated from University of Washington, Master of Social Work in 2012 and has been in this field for 14 years. I have worked in hospitals, and community based mental health. My passion is working with women who is trying to get pregnant, who is pregnant and who is navigating parenthood. My other passion is working with adults who were diagnosed late in life with ADHD. A lot of my clients are also dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, loss and life transitions.

Through my career I've worn many different hats before getting a prescription pad. I've worked in a variety of settings such as inpatient, emergency departments, community health, residentials, eating disorder treatment, and addiction recovery with kids, adolescents, and adults.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master's degree in Counseling Psychology, and I have been working in the field since 2019. I enjoy working with a wide range of clients but especially young adults struggling with navigating anxiety, depression, ptsd, marriage and family issues. I also enjoy incorporating faith based counseling at the client's request. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and focused on helping clients find solutions and build skills that create lasting change in their live.

Mental health counseling is a form of help that can be tailored to meet the diverse needs of many individuals. Some mental health professionals, including me, intentionally incorporate spiritual or religious elements into their therapeutic practices. I do so because I primarily serve a Christian community, because my clients also adhere to religious principles in their own lives, and I subscribe to the belief that people experiencing distress can especially benefit from the help of God and spiritual empowerment.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Doctorate in Social Work, and I bring both clinical expertise and real life understanding into the therapy space. My professional background includes years of direct clinical practice as well as leadership roles in complex, high stress systems, including serving as a Mental Health Director. These experiences have shaped my ability to support individuals who are navigating pressure, responsibility, and emotional overwhelm while still being expected to function at a high level.

I work best with clients who are strong on the outside but struggling internally. Many of the people I support are women, mothers, professionals, caregivers, and helpers who are used to showing up for others while neglecting their own emotional needs. I have a particular passion for working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome, burnout, life transitions, relationship stress, identity concerns, and trauma related to past or ongoing stressors.

Therapy with me is not about having all the answers. It is about learning how to trust yourself, set healthy boundaries, and show up for your life with more compassion and confidence.

Welcome! My name is Tetana Adkins, and I am a licensed independent practitioner in the State of Washington. I earned my Master of Science in Social Work with a specialized Mental Health track from the University of Washington in 2018. With a strong foundation in community mental health and a focus on digital accessibility, I have been dedicated to providing high-quality telehealth care since 2020. I am passionate about meeting my clients where they are, ensuring professional support is always within reach.

I believe in a holistic model of wellness that balances all aspects of the individual. As an eclectic clinician, I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, I draw from a diverse 'toolbox' of therapies—including CBT, DBT, Narrative Therapy, and Mindfulness—to help you build the specific coping skills you need to thrive. My goal is to serve as a guide for those seeking support with anxiety, depression, adjustment challenges, body dysmorphia, and gender identity. Together, we focus on your inherent strengths to foster lasting recovery.

I am a highly experienced mental health professional with over 31 years of practice in diagnosing and prescribing medication for depressive disorders, bipolar disorder, and attention deficits. My primary focus is on stabilizing your mood and helping you achieve a better quality of life.
