Getting to know Betina Wofford-Gilmore

Greetings and congratulations on taking the first step towards change. My name is Dr. Betina Wofford-Gilmore, and I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and/or your loved one.

I earned my Doctor of Social Work from Capella University and hold a Master's in Clinical Social Work from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

I could only pick two but Dr. Betina is all of these things. She is solution oriented and warm. Humorous but direct. Very intelligent in her approach to things as well.
Opens me to ideas I’d never considered, patterns and connections I hadn’t recognized, and a whole new way to reframe my experience as a person. I feel seen, challenged to be honest with my deep self, able to go at a pace that feels safe to me. Ability to add levity and appropriate comfort in hard conversations. Deep understanding and experience of life. Thankful I found her.
I appreciate that we have both been through similar situations and she understands my situation and concerns. She is very open and direct. I value her recommendations and insight.

Absolutely ?? What I needed to move forward
Dr. B is very attentive, knowledgeable and kind. She helps me set boundaries with the people in my life and also step outside of my comfort zone.
I really enjoy Dr.Betina. She's been an amazing listening ear. I never thought therapy would be like this, but it's as if she was made perfectly for me. She challenges me and questions me, and tries to get me to address my issues. I love that I can be completely open and honest with her about everything. I needed her to be that person who wasn't judgmental and who would be indifferent to whatever I had to say. She has me questioning everything I have done and thought and makes me wonder why I do the things I do. I speak so highly of Dr. Betina to anyone who speaks to me about therapy and going to therapy. She gives her own insight into her own life, so it seems so genuine and relatable. We all need someone like Dr. Betina.
