De Sean Horton, MSW, LCSWA

Integrative Therapist

It is an honor for me to help Cooper Riis residents feel comfortable embodying their authentic selves and moving at their own pace rather than the pace of others. 

Before joining CooperRiis, De Sean was a direct care staff member for at-risk youth at Eliada Homes in Asheville, NC. He also served as a residential advisor at CooperRiis for three years while pursuing his master’s degree in social work. 

De Sean’s undergraduate degree is in psychology with a minor in biology. 

His master’s degree is in Social Work. 

“I love cats! Supporting my cats helped me choose a higher education level, which allows me to help others and, of course, my cats.”
