Shawn Alyea
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!

Zenoide "Willow" Aucoin-Corbeau
Hello, and welcome. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who has been providing therapy since 2017. Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals facing a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, complex PTSD, ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, grief and loss, relationship challenges, life transitions, burnout, chronic stress, and adjustment to major life changes. My professional background includes work in emergency and crisis mental health settings, where I supported individuals experiencing acute psychiatric crises, suicidality, severe mental health symptoms, and major life disruptions. I have worked extensively with veterans, active-duty military personnel, first responders, and individuals exposed to high-stress and traumatic environments. As a veteran, I bring both professional expertise and personal understanding to my work with military and veteran populations. I have experience helping individuals navigate military trauma, combat-related stress, operational stress injuries, moral injury, reintegration challenges, traumatic loss, and the psychological impact of prolonged exposure to conflict and violence. I have also worked with individuals who have lived, worked, or served in war and combat environments, as well as family members and loved ones affected by military service and deployment. In addition to supporting service members and veterans, I have experience working with spouses, partners, parents, and family members of active-duty personnel and combat veterans. Military service can affect entire families, and I am passionate about helping individuals navigate the unique challenges of military life, deployment, loss, caregiving responsibilities, relationship strain, and the transition back to civilian life. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I believe therapy should be both supportive and practical, helping clients better understand themselves while building skills to navigate life's challenges. I tailor treatment to each individual's unique experiences, strengths, values, and goals. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship concerns, neurodivergence, stress, military-related challenges, or simply feeling overwhelmed by life's demands, I strive to create a therapeutic environment that is respectful, authentic, and focused on meaningful growth. Seeking support takes courage, and I would be honored to be part of your journey.

Find a therapist near you in Sweetwater, Oklahoma
Finding a therapist near you in Sweetwater, 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.

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.
