About Jeff
Jeff Rhein helps people who are stressed, anxious, or struggling with mood and addiction issues. He is an LPCC with 25 years of experience and speaks plainly about practical steps people can use. Jeff aims to make therapy feel straightforward and focused so clients can get to work on what matters most.
He began his career after earning a Master of Rehabilitation Counseling from Wright State University in 2000. His early work included crisis counseling at a county jail and participating on crisis response teams doing prehospital screening.
How Jeff works
That hands-on experience shaped a direct, problem-solving approach to care. Most of his clinical time has been in outpatient treatment where he worked with mental health and substance use concerns. He has also spent 17 years supervising other clinicians and teaching crisis intervention at the graduate level.
Those roles informed his interest in coaching and clinician development. Jeff uses clear, goal-oriented methods in sessions. He draws from cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused ideas to help people manage symptoms and make changes.
Conversations tend to emphasize concrete tools and short-term goals. People can expect focused talks about behavior, thinking patterns, and practical coping skills. He also brings experience with first responder issues, multicultural concerns, grief, career stress, and compassion fatigue.
Sessions aim to break down problems into small, manageable steps so progress is easier to track.

Online support options
Practical approaches for online therapy and change
CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, looks at how thoughts and actions affect feelings. Sessions using CBT focus on identifying unhelpful thinking and practicing different behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or panic.Motivational interviewing is a conversational style that helps people find their own reasons to change. It is useful for addictions, readiness for change, and when someone feels stuck or ambivalent about taking next steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That decision can change over time as progress is made and goals shift.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video suits deeper conversations and visual cues, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat or text works well for brief check-ins or when people prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or busy days while still using goal-focused methods.
