Shawna Theriot, LCSW
About me
Hello! My name is Shawna Theriot (pronounced Terry-O), and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-S). I offer a variety of services to assist those who are struggling in their day-to-day life from stressors such as parenting, relationships, employment challenges, educational/career needs, or more complex problems such as anxiety and depression. We all need a helping hand throughout different stages of our lives and it is ok to seek guidance from an outside resource! I enjoy helping others on their journey by providing therapy services that are tailored to meet each person’s specific, individual goals as they navigate life’s challenges. I use a variety of methods including art/music assisted therapy, meditation/mindfulness, and most importantly, allowing people to have a safe space to explore themselves more deeply to find their own path.
My experience includes working with those dealing with trauma, care for those who have been in foster care, teens dealing with bullying/self-esteem/self-confidence, managing ADHD in all ages, adults struggling to find a work-life balance, seniors or others navigating illness and transitions in life, End-of-Life support, Caregiver support, LGBTQ+/Gender/Identity needs, and grief work both within the community and in private practice. I am passionate about my work and know that each individual has the capacity to feel perfectly whole and complete. After all, you already are! Sometimes we just need a little help finding our way back to health and balance. I offer virtual sessions via video, phone, and text for ages 9 and up and accept most major insurance carriers.
I look forward to seeing you as we walk the path of wellness together!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Shawna Theriot. 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 don't have enough words to describe how amazing Shawna is. I could write a book. I hated therapy in the past. Not anymore.

Shawna is so personable and it helps a lot talking to her. I just feel like she understands what I’m saying.
