Alanna Betts Art Therapy and Counseling

Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LPC, ATR, PMH-C
Accepting clients Last Updated 1 days ago

At Alanna Betts Art Therapy and Counseling, I specialize in helping students navigate the challenges of eating disorders, body image concerns, pregnancy/postpartum, and struggles with anxiety and depression. As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Registered Art Therapist (ATR), and Certified in Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C), I bring both professional training and lived experience to my work.

I understand how consuming thoughts about food, weight, and body image can become; leaving little space for school, relationships, or self-care. My approach combines evidence-based therapies, including EMDR, CBT, and narrative therapy, with creative modalities like Art Therapy.

I work with individuals across Virginia through secure telehealth and also offer in-person sessions in Reston, VA. My private practice is private-pay and designed for full 60-minute sessions, giving clients time and space to go deeper in their healing.
Whether you’re beginning to notice unhealthy patterns around food or struggling with a long-standing eating disorder, or dealing with the challenges of trauma or pregnancy postpartum; you don’t have to navigate this alone. Healing and recovery are possible and I am here to walk alongside you.
