Shawayna Teal, LMHC

Shawayna Teal believes that everyone deserves joy, fulfillment, and the chance to live their fullest life. She recognizes that life’s challenges can sometimes block that potential, and she approaches therapy with a commitment to helping clients navigate those obstacles. Shawayna values the therapeutic relationship and draws on a belief that people often contain their own answers - she aims to guide clients toward those insights with empathy and practical support.

She cultivates a genuine, supportive space where adults can explore thoughts and feelings and work toward meaningful change. Her approach blends Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on the links between thoughts and behavior, with Solution-Focused techniques that emphasize practical steps and achievable goals. Shawayna communicates in an encouraging, down-to-earth manner to help clients build resilience and clearer direction.
