Sheena Mahoney
Hi! My name is Sheena. I am an LICSW with over a decade of experience in the crisis field and working alongside first responders. My time in the community has helped me to see that everyone is going through something and often, a listening ear is greatly appreciated.
I provide direct feedback while also maintaining a neutral space for clients to work through frustrations and have the discussions that may be more difficult with those close to them.
I provide a non-judgmental atmosphere to struggles that my clients may encounter and help to explore the thoughts and feelings that are getting in their way.
First session
In our first session, we will talk about some of your goals and what you might like to discuss while in treatment. We will establish a framework for our work together with a clear plan moving forward.
Strengths
I have seen a lot throughout my career and enjoy helping people work through their challenges, big or small. I provide direct feedback while also maintaining a neutral space for clients to work through frustrations and have the discussions that may be more difficult with those close to them. If you are looking for someone to help tackle those issues or tough conversations, I'm here when you are ready to share.
Ideal clients
I specialize in working with first responders and those who appreciate direct feedback. Having worked alongside law enforcement for almost a decade, I have the unique perspective to understand that world and the challenges that one can face personally or professionally. If you are not a first responder, we may also connect well on areas of life transitions. I also have significant practice working with those struggling with complicated grief.
Treatment methods
Person-centered (Rogerian)
I strive to meet clients where they are at. Having worked in the crisis world for most of my career, I feel it is vital for clients to feel heard without judgement. Together, we will work to increase your awareness and understanding about yourself and others and to identify areas of support and enhance communication skills.
