Sheena Rabheru, LCPC

Sheena Rabheru is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) based in Maryland with ten years of experience. She brings a broad background from work in varied clinical settings both in the United States and overseas. She aims to make therapy approachable and practical for people facing everyday struggles.

Sheena draws on cognitive-behavioral ideas alongside attachment and emotion-focused perspectives. She adapts methods to each person rather than using a single fixed style. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and building small, usable habits that make daily life easier.

Clients come to her for issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, sleep problems, low self-esteem, and coping with life changes. She also addresses concerns like obsessive thoughts, panic attacks, bipolar challenges, and ADHD when they affect day-to-day functioning. Additional areas of focus include family of origin issues, fatherhood concerns, first responder and veteran-related issues, and multicultural matters.

Her approach emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental atmosphere where people can talk openly and set realistic goals. Sheena aims to help people discover what matters to them and take practical steps toward those goals. Conversations tend to be straightforward and focused on concrete change.

Sheena works in English and has experience with diverse age groups and cultural backgrounds. She encourages a collaborative relationship in which the client’s preferences guide the pace and methods used.

How these approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and committing to small actions that reflect those values while learning to make space for difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions by shifting attention toward meaningful action.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. In practice this means identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing them, and trying new behaviors that reduce symptoms like panic, obsessive thinking, or sleep disruption.

Emotionally-Focused and attachment-based ideas help people understand how patterns of relating and attachment shape their responses. These approaches are useful for improving emotional awareness, managing relationship-related stress, and addressing family of origin concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying a strategy, checking how it feels, and adjusting the plan together.

When considering online therapy, check the current session options before booking so you know which formats are available. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some formats also let people opt out of video if they prefer a phone conversation or a simpler session. Confirm the exact session types offered and schedule times when you can have a quieter, uninterrupted period for the work.
