About Jeff
Jeff Rhein is an Ohio LPCC with 25 years of experience in counseling and rehabilitation. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, low self-esteem, and life transitions. He also helps with grief, career concerns, mood disorders, and issues linked to first responder work.
He completed a Master of Rehabilitation Counseling at Wright State University in 2000 and began his career in crisis counseling at a county jail. Over the years he has worked in outpatient settings treating general mental health and substance use concerns. He has been part of crisis response teams offering prehospital screening and has facilitated trainings on crisis intervention and motivational interviewing.
Much of his recent work has involved supervising other clinicians. He has 17 years of experience providing clinical supervision and has taught crisis intervention at the graduate level. That background informs how he organizes sessions and mentors newer therapists.
In sessions he uses straightforward, skills-based methods that people can apply to daily life. He draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thinking and behavior. Motivational interviewing is used to support change when substance use or ambivalence is involved.
Mindfulness strategies and solution-focused tools are used to manage strong emotions and set practical goals. He aims for clear steps people can practice outside sessions so progress is measurable.
Jeff conducts sessions in English and works from Ohio. He does not accept international clients. Before booking, confirm current session formats and scheduling details with him.
How his approaches translate to online work
CBT focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep strong emotions active and replacing them with practical alternatives. Online sessions can include working through thought records, behavior experiments, and short homework exercises that fit into daily routines.Motivational interviewing is a conversational method that helps people resolve mixed feelings about change. In remote sessions this looks like guided discussion, exploring values and goals, and building commitment to steps that feel doable in everyday life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with clients to decide which methods fit their goals and circumstances. That decision is based on the client’s needs, what they want to accomplish, and what feels most comfortable during early sessions.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions help them fit appointments into work breaks, avoid travel time, and keep consistent check-ins. If a shorter phone check-in or video session is better for a given week, discuss that during scheduling so sessions match daily life without adding burden.
