Jeff Rhein

Jeff Rhein is an Ohio-based licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) with 25 years in mental health and addiction work. He helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, mood problems, and substance use concerns. He also supports those facing grief, career strain, self-esteem struggles, and compassion fatigue.

He trained at Wright State University and earned a Master of Rehabilitation Counseling in 2000. His early work included crisis counseling at a county jail and participating on crisis response teams that performed prehospital screening. Those roles shaped his ability to respond calmly in high-stress situations.

Most of his clinical practice has been in outpatient care, where he has worked with people coping with general mental health and substance use issues. He has spent 17 years supervising other clinicians and teaching crisis intervention at the graduate level. That history means he brings both front-line experience and supervisory perspective to sessions.

Jeff uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy. In sessions he focuses on practical steps, goal-setting, and skills people can use between meetings. He aims to help people reduce symptoms, improve coping, and make forward progress.

He has also facilitated trainings on crisis intervention, motivational interviewing, and supervision. People who choose him can expect a clinician shaped by many years in outpatient treatment, crisis settings, and educator roles.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Jeff often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions so clients can test small changes and measure results.

He also uses motivational interviewing to help people resolve mixed feelings about change. This approach focuses on the client’s own goals and builds motivation through guided conversation and reflective listening.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before to decide together which methods to emphasize. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions to each person’s needs.

The biography did not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. In general online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can use a mix of approaches and practical homework to keep progress moving between meetings.
