De Shawn Childs, Counselor

De Shawn Childs is a counselor offering mental health services for teens at 8880 W Sunset Rd, Unit 200, in Las Vegas, 89148, within the 13 to 17 age bracket specifically. This is a therapy practice rather than a recreational program, so families should understand it as a clinical service, not an activity or class.

The listed services cover a fairly broad set of evidence-based approaches: Mental Health Counseling, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Parenting Support. Having several modalities listed suggests treatment can be tailored to what a particular teen or family needs, whether that is trauma processing, anxiety, or building coping skills, though the listing does not specify which conditions are treated with which method.

De Shawn Childs is marked as special needs friendly, with emotional and behavioral support listed as an accommodation, which is relevant for teens who need therapeutic support alongside or instead of a traditional talk-therapy format. Office hours are Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with the practice closed on weekends, and services are offered year-round.

Sessions are conducted in English. The listing does not include self-pay pricing, so families should ask directly about session cost, insurance acceptance, or sliding-scale options, since counseling costs vary widely and are not something to assume from a directory listing. De Shawn Childs practices under LifeStance Health, based on the website link in the listing, which is worth knowing if you are trying to verify insurance coverage through that larger group practice.

For scheduling an intake appointment, asking which therapy approach might fit a specific teen's needs, or confirming whether parenting support sessions are available alongside a teen's individual therapy, call (702) 805-5360.

Since the age bracket here is limited to 13 to 17, this listing is specifically useful for parents of teenagers rather than younger children, and families with a younger child needing counseling should ask whether the practice, or others within the same LifeStance network, can accommodate a broader age range.
