Sheba Shiver, LMFT

Sheba Shiver is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with 15 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, grief, addiction concerns, parenting strain, relationship and family conflict, career stress, and life transitions. She works in plain terms and focuses on practical changes clients can make in daily life.

Sheba begins by building a working relationship and encouraging clear communication. She pays attention to how clients relate in session as a way to spot patterns that show up outside therapy. That often leads to clearer boundaries and steadier responses to frustration or provocation.

Her style is collaborative. She learns from each person and combines that with evidence-informed approaches to create short-term and longer-term goals. Expect conversations that link real situations to concrete skills you can try between sessions. Progress is tracked through behavior change rather than abstract theory.

She uses a range of psychotherapy methods including cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, existential questions about meaning and choice, motivational interviewing to clarify goals, and narrative approaches to rework personal stories. These approaches are used to address anger, coping, and related concerns in straightforward ways.

Sheba emphasizes communication skills, boundary setting, and practical coping strategies. People often work on reducing reactivity, improving workplace interactions, managing resentment, and repairing strained relationships. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button.
