Hello, I'm De'Shaun, and am very excited to be of service to you. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) dedicated to implementing effective treatment and education strategies that help children, adolescents, and adults cope with and conquer life’s challenges. I incorporate a holistic approach to therapy, by helping people understand the connection between mind and body. I have taken time to recognize and highlight how our daily nutritional intake, directly correlates with our vast array of thoughts and emotions. As a certified Integrative Mental Health Professional, I appreciate the opportunities I’m given to educate communities on the many benefits of non-pharmaceutical integrative medicine. My other areas of certification include Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Family & Divorce Mediation, and Batterer’s Intervention Program Facilitation. I am also a Board Approved Oklahoma LPC Supervisor. I hold a Bachelor of Science Degree in Social Science with a major in Psychology/Sociology from St. Gregory’s University, and a Master of Science Degree in Rehabilitation Counseling from Langston University. My commitment to program development and the desire to bring people together, is reflected in my professional career throughout Oklahoma and abroad. I began work as a Psychosocial Rehabilitation Specialist in 2008, linking families to valuable resources and teaching healthy social skills to adolescents. I’ve worked as Lead Counselor of Upward Bound, where I helped high school students bridge the gap between high school and college preparation, and as an Outpatient Behavioral Therapist providing individual, and family services. I’ve gained significant experience also working as a Program Director for School-based Day Treatment/Outpatient Mental Health Services. I have created curriculum for emotional support classrooms, educated the educators on best practices for working with children who have experienced complex traumas, and developed useful strategies that help families manage the painful effects of anxiety trauma and depression. My goal is to equip individuals and families with tools that promote positive self-outlook, healthy relationships, and nutritional well-being for improved “Mental Wealth”. Within the field of the helping profession, I’ve witnessed significant increases in the support of individuals taking the initiative to address their underlying mental health needs, begin their healing processes, and set new standards for living. I believe there is a sacredness built into the creation of safe spaces for self-reflection and growth. Daily obstacles continue to be fundamental part of our journey towards self-knowledge, and ultimately self-healing. I find it helpful to focus on what is within our control, maintaining the capacity to analyze situations from a place of peace, and to think through solutions that enhance our personal growth in difficult times. In the same way, as we work to balance life’s disappointments and the inevitable, I encourage that we use the power of mind and voice to prioritize our mental health. Outside of supporting and counseling in my community, I find enjoyment in playing the guitar, travel, creative writing, exercise, and using my art to promote mental prosperity.

I have worked with children, teens, adults, couples, and families for 9 years. I love helping clients with an array of concerns such as; anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, and just normal life stressors like relationships, parenting, and self image. My specialty would be trauma from abuse (emotional, physical, spiritual, mental, and sexual) . I want to help clients see that what happened to them is not okay ,but it does not have to define them. They can live a life free from the trauma and all the shame and guilt that comes with it. I use treatment methods such as CBT(Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) it is changing how we think so we change how we feel so we can have better reactions. I also use Narrative Writing, which is basically telling your story on paper. My therapy style is warm and interactive. I am going to listen and I am going to challenge my client's thinking to help them grow and develop new ways of thinking and stop unhealthy patterns. I am going to teach them coping skills and help them see they no longer need me because they are strong enough on their own. I am going to treat everyone with respect and kindness. I am a Christian but I understand and accept not all my clients will be and that is completely fine with me. I pass no judgement because I have never walked their shoes. I do offer a lot of empathy and validation to all my clients so they feel seen and heard. I am here to help provide time and space for my client explore who they are and who they want to be. I work from a strength base model where I find their strengths a make them stronger. I also help them discover their weaknesses so I can help them develop strategies to grow and develop them into more of a strength. It takes a lot of courage to seek help and I want to say BRAVO for reaching out. Change can be frightful but in the end it is so worth it to be free of the burdens.

Does BetterHelp take insurance?

How does the cost of an in-person therapist compare to BetterHelp?
The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Stroud due to a higher cost of living, and a limited number of therapists taking new clients. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for.

- With a psychiatrist: $150-$500
- With therapists: $100-300

Is BetterHelp right for me?
One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance. Counselors are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.
Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of therapy in Stroud is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.

Should I find a Stroud therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine?
Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what it might entail. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or specific condition. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback. A Stroud licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.
Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find with a counselor can be dependent on your process.
People may also attend therapy for specific motives, such as bullying, an autism diagnosis, a desire to learn mindfulness meditation, personality concerns, trouble with office workers, specific phobias, and many other principles that a counselor can help with.
