Tameka Dean

Tameka Dean is a licensed professional counselor practicing in Georgia with 17 years of experience in the mental health field. She has provided care across a range of treatment settings, including inpatient, residential, partial care, outpatient, and in-home services, and brings that breadth of experience to each therapeutic relationship.

Her clinical focus includes stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, self-esteem concerns, addictions, family conflicts, grief, intimacy-related issues, and LGBT-affirmative care. Tameka approaches therapy with the belief that people possess the inner resources to move toward healthier, more fulfilling lives, and that unhealed wounds can slow that process. Her goal is to guide, educate, support, and empower clients as they pursue healing and personal growth.

She integrates evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, mindfulness-based techniques, Motivational Interviewing, and client-centered methods to tailor care to each person’s needs. Tameka also supports individuals who prefer a more goal-directed, coaching-style approach rather than traditional therapy.

Tameka values the therapeutic alliance as a collaborative partnership grounded in open communication, honesty, and mutual respect. She takes particular satisfaction in moments when clients experience new insight and recognize their ability to lead their own healing journey.

Please note that Tameka Dean offers sessions by phone or video only.
