About Zebrina
Zebrina Rhem is a clinician who blends practical talk therapy with skills-based tools. She uses clear techniques to help people manage anxiety, stress, mood changes, and life transitions. Zebrina holds an MD and is an LCSW-C with seven years of professional experience in Maryland.
She focuses on teaching straightforward coping skills people can use between sessions. Those skills come from evidence-informed approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy.
Background and approach
Sessions often include identifying unhelpful thoughts, building emotional regulation skills, and practicing new behavior patterns. Her work covers many common struggles, such as depression, trauma and abuse, anger, sleep problems, and issues around self-esteem. She also supports people dealing with career stress, caregiver strain, relationship concerns, and grief.
Zebrina addresses substance use, eating concerns, and the challenges of parenting and pregnancy when these come up. People can expect a collaborative style that mixes short-term problem solving with longer-term skill building. Conversations tend to be direct and practical.
The aim is to create small, achievable steps that lead to clearer thinking and steadier emotions. Zebrina offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. She works through video, phone, live chat, or text messaging.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the listed options and availability.
How CBT and DBT translate to online care
CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments. It helps people reduce anxiety, change avoidance patterns, and improve sleep and daily routines. DBT, dialectical behavior therapy, teaches emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills to manage intense feelings and conflict more effectively.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques in session, and adjust methods based on what helps most. That collaborative process helps match CBT or DBT strategies to the client's needs and preferences rather than assuming a single path up front.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face work when demonstrations or guided exercises are helpful. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, skill coaching between sessions, and ongoing accountability. These options make it easier to practice skills consistently and to keep continuity when schedules or locations change.
