community family/mental health resources
The Terra Academy is fortunate to have Shane Whiting, Ph.D., join the team in 2024. Shane has been a LMFT (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist) in the state of Utah since 2004 and adds a wealth of knowledge and experience to our counseling program.
Shane is available for crisis intervention, immediate need and short term individual therapy, and small group sessions.
We value our students at Terra Academy and realize that in order for our students to achieve academic success it is imperative to nurture them as a whole person to make sure that their mental health needs are being met along with their educational needs.
Students will not meet with Shane on an individual basis for therapy reasons without first having a Informed Consent permission signed from a parent.
You can download the Informed Consent permission slip here.
