Hi, my name is Crisha Thebeau and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC). I graduated with my Masters's degree in Community Mental Health from the University of South Florida in 2007. I have been a Mental Health Counselor since 2007. I have been a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida for over 18 years. Before becoming a Mental Health Counselor I worked with at-risk youth in rural Pennsylvania (AmeriCorps*VISTA) and with juvenile offenders in Pinellas County. My entire work history has been to serve others and I have 30 years of experience working with diverse populations, including teens and adults. I am a non-judgmental and all-inclusive therapist and welcome folks of all kinds! I use a variety of approaches to therapy that include: Cognitive-Behavioral, Solution Focused, Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness and Narrative.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression, anxiety or past/present trauma. During our sessions you are the leader, and I am here to walk with you. Initially we will assess the situation and what brought you to therapy. Then we will create a plan to address these issues. Our sessions will include coping skills, stress management and other tools to help manage these stressors.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My biggest strengths are listening without judgment, treating people with unconditional positive regard, relationship building and maintenance, and providing support to individuals on their life journey. I teach a variety of coping skills to help manage stressors in all settings. I work hard to meet you where you are & am highly encouraging. I love celebrating the small victories as well as the big ones! I welcome anyone that wants a kind, warm & empathetic counselor to help work through past or present concerns.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work with adults and teens and a majority of my experience is with teens. Teens experience the same stressors we did PLUS the added challenges of social media, cell phones and constant contact with the world. I can help your teen navigate the challenges of high school and be better prepared for their adult lives. I am down to earth and have a laid-back style that many teens appreciate.
