About Sheena

Sheena Rabheru is a licensed clinician who brings ten years of experience to her work in Maryland. She holds an MD and is also a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor - LCPC. Sheena focuses on practical help for common problems like stress, anxiety, depression, sleep troubles, and attention concerns.

She also addresses addiction, grief, and life transitions with a straightforward, supportive style. Sheena uses a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs.

Background and approach

She draws from cognitive behavioral tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses attachment-informed ideas to help people understand relationship patterns and emotional connection. Sessions are warm and down-to-earth.

Sheena aims for a nonjudgmental space where people can talk about hard things. She keeps language simple and steers conversation toward doable steps and small changes that make daily life easier. Her background includes work in varied clinical settings in the US and abroad.

That experience informs how she notices cultural differences and life context when planning care. Sheena tends to tailor techniques rather than rely on one fixed method. Parents and individuals who want clear guidance and practical tools may find her approach helpful.

She explains ideas plainly and focuses on what can be tried right away. The goal is steady progress toward feeling more capable and comfortable in daily life.

How Sheena’s Approaches Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters most and take small, meaningful steps toward those values. It focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and can help with anxiety, stress, and life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises and simple experiments to reduce symptoms like panic, low mood, or sleep problems and to build new coping skills.

Attachment-Based Therapy concentrates on how early relationships shape emotional patterns today. It can be useful for understanding fears around closeness and for improving how people relate to others.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Sheena collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and daily life. That means trying things, checking how they feel, and adjusting methods together rather than sticking to one set plan.

Online work with Sheena uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. These options let people attend sessions from home, fit therapy around busy schedules, and keep progress steady when travel or work gets in the way. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and worksheets for remote use so sessions remain practical and focused on real-life improvements.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
