About Sheena

Sheena Rabheru is a licensed clinician with an MD and an LCPC and ten years of clinical experience. She works from Maryland and combines practical tools with empathetic listening to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and life transitions. Sheena emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental setting where people can talk openly and begin to make small, steady changes.

She draws from several evidence-based approaches to match each person’s needs. Sessions often include straightforward strategies to manage symptoms as well as space to talk about patterns from the past that still cause pain today. Sheena aims to help clients build clearer goals, healthier routines, and stronger ways to cope with setbacks.

Many people turn to her for help with trauma, grief, sleep problems, ADHD, and women's issues. She also supports those navigating career shifts, midlife questions, military-related concerns, and struggles tied to family of origin. Her background includes clinical work both in the U.S. and overseas, which informs a culturally aware approach.

Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. She explains techniques plainly and checks in about what’s working. Sessions balance practical exercises with reflective conversation so progress feels doable.

Sheena offers multiple session formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. International clients who speak English can connect as well. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are scheduled based on therapist availability.

How Sheena’s Approaches Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then commit to actions tied to personal values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and making meaningful life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like panic, depression, or insomnia. It often uses practical exercises and homework between sessions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people build more secure ways of relating to others, which can aid relationship concerns and family-of-origin issues.

Sheena approaches these methods collaboratively. She will discuss options with each person and pick or combine approaches based on goals, current needs, and personal preference. That means the plan can shift as progress unfolds and new priorities emerge.

Online therapy here can be scheduled as a video call, phone session, live chat, or through text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick reflections, ongoing support between sessions, or when someone prefers writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life or to connect from another state or country while using English.
