Achieve Mental Wellness with Shaw Therapy
Deedee Schaw, LIMHP, LMSW
ABOUT ME
My name is Deedee Shaw, and I am passionate about helping people grow into the best version of themselves. I focus on supporting individuals and couples in reaching their fullest potential by creating a safe, supportive space to explore growth, connection, and positive sexual health. I take a sex-positive, non-typical approach to therapy—one that challenges stigma, embraces openness, and celebrates authenticity.
I have dedicated my career to serving people in diverse and meaningful ways. My background includes supporting individuals with developmental disabilities who utilize Developmental Disability Services through the State of Nebraska, working with youth in a long-term residential treatment program, and currently serving as a board member of the Nebraska Commission for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing and Mental Health Board member. These experiences have deepened my respect for the resilience of those who overcome life’s challenges and strengthened my passion for serving populations who are often marginalized, oppressed, or discriminated against.
I am fluent in American Sign Language (not as an interpreter, but as a communicator), allowing me to connect directly with individuals who use their hands to express themselves. I also have extensive knowledge of the ID/DD system, making me a valuable resource for parents of children with special needs.
I believe that sexual health is a vital part of overall well-being, and my work centers on helping people strengthen communication, deepen intimacy, and break free from the barriers that hold them back in their personal and relational lives. Whether you are navigating challenges in your sexual journey, processing past experiences, or simply striving to feel more empowered, I am here to walk alongside you with compassion and curiosity.
Our communities and cultures are constantly changing, and coping with everyday stressors can feel overwhelming. I want you to know that seeking counseling is just as important—and just as normal—as going to the doctor when you are sick. You matter. Your story matters. And together, we can work toward healing, growth, and a more fulfilling life.
