Shawntel is known for her direct, balanced, and grounded approach—prioritizing accountability, safety, and long-term stability for children and families.
Her mission is to create meaningful, lasting change in the lives of children and families—even in the most challenging circumstances.

Brittanie Thebeau, LPC, RPT™
My main goal is to provide a supportive therapeutic environment to empower clients to grow and make effective changes in their lives. To foster a warm, comfortable setting for my clients, I employ a compassionate, non-judgmental approach that offers a relaxed environment to facilitate healing and start the process of change. My clinical approaches are tailored to meet the unique needs each client has while also building on their current strengths. Reaching out for support can often feel overwhelming, however, everyone deserves the chance to explore the underlying struggles that may be impacting daily living, contentment, and happiness.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with experience working with children, adolescents, and adults providing individual therapy. Working with children (3 years and up) is my joy. I am currently working towards certification in EMDR and DBT. I look forward to helping you on your way toward personal growth and emotional well-being.

(He/Him/His)
My goal as a therapist is to give space to others so they can feel heard and express themselves in ways they might not be able to. I want to develop a trusting relationship with my clients so they can feel comfortable and be themselves as well as work through anything they might need. The therapeutic process looks different for everyone, so my main clinical approach is to adapt to what my client needs and how best to highlight their strengths. My passion is to provide my clients with tools they may need in life that they may not have access to or to help them relearn tools lost along the way.
I enjoy working with adolescents, adults, and families by helping them through different life challenges, whether be behavioral issues, trauma, or everyday struggles. I believe in creating a safe environment for all people, including those in the LGBTQIA2+ community, to help feel a sense of belonging in a therapeutic setting.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who specializes in working with individuals, adolescents, teens, children, families, and couples. I am certified in providing Nurturing Parenting and Cooperative Co-parenting Classes.
Therapy Modalities Used: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) Reintegration Therapy, Attachment therapies, etc.

Hello! My name is Georgia Mitchell and I am a clinician here at Family Resource Network. I received my BA in Psychology from Appalachian State University in North Carolina and my MA in Forensic Psychology from City University of New York. I am extremely passionate about helping people out of oppressive situations. I’m a firm believer in taking care of everyone around you and want anyone who steps into my office to feel that care and commitment from me. Life can be hard, but with the proper support system, I hope to maximize your potential and help you become the best version of yourself.
In my free time, I love spending time with my friends and family (and my pets). I moved to Colorado for the mountains, so if I am not in the office or at home, you can find me in the Rockies! I try to incorporate love and acceptance into everything I do. I look forward to providing that nonjudgmental and safe atmosphere for you.
