About Sheena
Sheena Rabheru brings a decade of counseling experience to her practice in Maryland. She holds an MD and is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC). She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship strain, addiction, and life transitions.
Sheena aims to make therapy straightforward and approachable for worried parents and busy adults. Sheena draws from several practical approaches, including cognitive behavioral strategies and attachment-focused work. Sessions focus on clear goals, skill building, and understanding patterns that keep problems in place.
Background and approach
Sheena uses everyday language and concrete steps so clients can try new behaviors between meetings. People often come for help with sleep problems, panic, obsessive thoughts, or managing ADHD and bipolar symptoms. Sheena also helps with grief, career questions, and issues rooted in family of origin or multicultural stress.
She can address concerns that affect first responders, veterans, and parents navigating fatherhood issues. Her style is warm and direct. She creates space for straightforward conversation and practical problem solving.
Sheena asks about what matters most to each person and works alongside them to set realistic next steps. Sheena has worked in a range of settings in the U.S. and overseas. That background informs how she adapts strategies to fit different cultures and life contexts.
People looking for a compassionate counselor who focuses on usable tools may find her approach helpfully down-to-earth.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) centers on clarifying values and learning skills to act in line with those values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes by teaching practical exercises to notice and move through hard moments. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with small behavioral changes. CBT is often used for panic, obsessive thoughts, sleep problems, and mood concerns because it gives concrete steps to change reactions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sheena will discuss your needs, goals, and preferences and suggest methods to try. Together you can adjust the plan as you learn what works best for you.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and situations. Video lets you work face to face; phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited; live chat and text messaging allow brief check-ins or ongoing support between meetings. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, family time, or when travel is difficult.
