Therian is a subset of the general term "Otherkin" which denotes someone who believes their Self to be, in some way/shape/form, not human the way the body is. This can be either through mental archetypes (Lone wolf, crafty fox, fierce dragon, etc), spiritual causes (soul is made in a "type" that is not human, but is born in a human body), or through beliefs in reincarnation (past life as a non-human that had a strong imprint upon the soul/spirit/Self).
Therians specifically are the earth-native creatures. The other group is, in general, referred to as the mythics. These are the fae, the dragons, the aliens, etc.
Mature otherkin are willing to admit that their beliefs are quite out there. However, they also don't obsess over their beliefs, nor let them impact their lives in a detrimental way. They hold jobs, go to school, raise families, just as the rest of humanity does. And they frequently embrace their being human now as well.
