My name is Shawn Alyea. I've been a Licensed Professional Counselor and supervisor in Oklahoma for 30 years. I practice compassion driven, creative counseling with a dose of humor. I believe even during the tough times in life we can find hope and joy. In fact, growth most often occurs during the circumstances that lead us to seek support. I operate from a compassionate perspective and believe everyone deserves to be respected and valued. That is central to my relationship with clients. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy/Narrative therapy approaches along with a variety of expressive techniques to reach a point of healing. I find this to be most effective when with people towards their personal goals. I’ve worked with clients age 3 to 97 addressing the spectrum of human emotions from depression and anxiety to grief, anger, love, divorce and changes in life. I look forward to walking along side you during your journey!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. As a LCSW I am licensed to provide family and individual therapy. I have been a licensed therapist for 7 years. Some of my previous jobs have been teacher, working with developmentally disabled adults for 15 yeas. I also have worked for the State of Oklahoma in Adult Protection Services, Developmental Disabilities and Child Welfare. I have worked with individuals and families who have been involved with Child Welfare investigations. Some of my experiences have been working with individuals with depression, anxiety, emotional and physical abuse, relationship issues. My style is warm and non judgmental. I feel labels limit us but my treatment style can be adjusted to your individual needs. I have used Cognitive Behavioral, EMDR, DBT and even Play therapy and yes even adults can benefit from this. I attend trainings and even at my age I enjoy learning new treatment types. I have enjoyed recently learning about Mindfulness. Mindfulness is as old as the hills. This philosophy or life style has lead me to be more productive recently. I know how difficult it is to reach out for help. By reaching out you are now prepared to work on the issues which are preventing you from enjoying a more rewarding life. Sometimes you feel better just to have someone who will listen to you without judgement and offer occasional advice to help you deal with conflicts. Now you have reached out I look forward to help develop an individual treatment plan and working with you to overcome the problems that have caused you to reach out. *** Please note I do not provide Christian based therapy and I do not identify as Christian in my spiritual beliefs. I do not provide Christian or spiritual based services that include Bible wisdom and prayer.

Many people spend so much of their time caring for others that they forget they deserve support too. You may appear to have everything together on the outside while quietly feeling overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally exhausted, or stuck on the inside. If that sounds familiar, you don’t have to carry it all alone anymore. With over 10 years of experience in the mental health field, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside individuals facing anxiety, OCD, ADHD, grief, stress, burnout, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you can be completely yourself—without fear of judgment—and begin reconnecting with who you are beneath the weight of life’s challenges. I believe healing begins when you feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative. I don’t believe you’re broken or need to be “fixed.” Instead, we’ll work together to better understand what you’re experiencing, recognize patterns that may no longer be serving you, and develop practical tools that help you heal, grow, and move forward with greater confidence and self-compassion. My passion for this work is deeply personal. I have experienced grief(through the loss of my father), anxiety, OCD, and ADHD myself, so I understand how lonely and overwhelming mental health struggles can feel. I even see my own therapist regularly to ensure I am able to provide the best quality of therapy to my clients. While everyone’s journey is unique, those experiences have strengthened both my empathy and my commitment to providing care that is grounded in professional expertise and genuine human connection. Taking the first step toward therapy isn’t always easy, but it can be one of the most meaningful investments you make in yourself. Wherever you are in your journey, I would be honored to walk alongside you as you discover hope, healing, and the life you deserve.

Find a therapist near you in Muldrow, Oklahoma

Finding a therapist near you in Muldrow, Oklahoma starts with matching to a licensed professional who fits your needs, schedule, and goals. Oklahoma is home to people with diverse mental health needs across urban, suburban, and rural communities, which can make it challenging to find care. BetterHelp connects you with a licensed therapist through tailored matching, so you can begin care from home or wherever works for you. 

The network includes over 30,000 licensed therapists globally, and over 4 million people have used BetterHelp to find support through online therapy. During matching, 93% of user preferences are met, which helps you connect with a therapist suited to what you are looking for. Whether you are searching for help with anxiety, trauma, affordable or insurance covered therapy, weekend or flexible scheduling, or virtual sessions, you can find a therapist and get started when you are ready.

Why work with a licensed therapist near you?

Working with a licensed therapist near you gives you access to professional mental health support from someone trained to help you understand and manage what you are going through. A licensed therapist can offer evidence-based approaches, a steady space to talk, and guidance tailored to your situation. In Oklahoma, online therapy can make that care more accessible, since sessions happen from home or wherever you are, without the need to travel to an office. This can help if your schedule is full, if travel is difficult, or if you simply prefer a more discreet setting. You can learn more about what a therapist does on the therapist role page.

Online therapy can be especially helpful for people living across Oklahoma, where access to in-person mental health care may vary by location.

What concerns can therapists help with?

Therapists can help with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety and stress, depression, trauma and PTSD, self-esteem and identity, people-pleasing and fear of rejection, insomnia and racing thoughts, workplace stress and burnout, substance use, parenting and co-parenting stress, grief and loss, and relationship and family challenges. Therapists on BetterHelp may draw on approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), depending on your needs and goals. You can explore support for specific concerns on pages such as generalized anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, and eating disorders.

Please note that therapists on BetterHelp do not provide psychiatric medication management or formal diagnoses.

Online therapy vs. in-person therapy in Oklahoma

Online therapy and in-person therapy both connect you with a licensed professional, and the main difference is how you meet. In Oklahoma, online therapy through BetterHelp lets you have sessions by phone, video, or in-app messaging, so you can meet from home or on a schedule that fits your life. In-person therapy takes place at an office and may involve travel and set appointment windows. Online therapy may be more accessible for people with busy schedules, limited transportation, or a preference for a more discreet setting. Both formats can support meaningful progress, so the right choice often comes down to what fits your life.

Finding a therapist that accepts insurance in Oklahoma

BetterHelp accepts insurance through many major insurance plans. Insurance availability and coverage may vary by state, plan, provider network, and therapist availability, and deductible status. Eligible members' average copay is $23 per session.

If you prefer to pay without insurance, BetterHelp subscriptions range from $70 to $100 per week, billed as an alternative way to access the same care, and you can use HSA and FSA funds toward the cost.
