I began my career as a Child & Youth Advocate with my local domestic violence agency after earning my Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology/Social Work from Bethel College in 2004. This position inspired me to continue my education and I obtained my Master of Arts degree in Counseling from Tennessee Technology University in 2007. After working in community mental health for several years, I became a Licensed Professional Counselor with the Mental Health Service Provider designation in 2011. I have provided mental health series in a variety of settings including schools, community mental health centers, residential treatment, private practice, and intensive outpatient treatment. My experience includes depression, anxiety, change of life, trauma recovery, and addiction recovery. I view wellness and recovery work from a holistic perspective and believe that the multiple facets of a person’s story are important to be addressed in successful treatment. I do not believe that treatment can be cookie cutter and each client's experiences shape our treatment journey together.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Asenia Hedgecoth. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I have been fortunate enough to have met and been treated by Asenia. We have been through a great journey and she helped me though a giant portion of it. She helped me through pain, anxiety, stress, addiction and some pretty big life changes throughout the year. She made me feel safe, supported and never judged, especially during my most vulnerable moments (rare as they are). Helped me stay focused and listened to help me stay on track, ensuring I reach my personal goals; however numerous and daunting.

Asenia is down to earth and non-judgmental. She is supportive while directing me to stretch myself to work on my issues in new ways.
Most important I have felt safe and comfortable since our first session while still making progress.
