About Mahroo

Mahroo Moshari is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in New York with 20 years of practice. She focuses on helping people who are facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, parenting challenges, and issues common to women. She speaks English, Italian, and Persian and brings a multicultural perspective to care.

Her sessions aim for clear, practical change. She helps people build self-awareness and problem-solving skills. She works on coping strategies for life transitions, grief, trauma, and mood concerns such as bipolar disorder. She also addresses sleeping problems, anger, and compassion fatigue.

Mahroo uses several therapeutic methods and adapts them to each person. She draws on client-centered work to follow a person’s lead and emotionally-focused ideas to improve bonds and communication. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors.

Her background includes long experience with parenting and family concerns, adoption and foster care matters, and cultural issues tied to immigration and acculturation. She supports people dealing with codependency, attachment or personality-related struggles, and caregiver stress.

Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Therapy operates on a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and international clients are not accepted. To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to each person, helping them feel heard and understood while they name goals and next steps. This approach is useful for concerns like low self-esteem, identity questions, and relationship communication.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. Online CBT sessions often include practical exercises and simple homework to test new ways of thinking and acting, which helps with anxiety, depression, sleep, and stress management.

Emotionally-focused ideas center on improving emotional connection and communication. In remote sessions this can mean practicing tracking emotions, rehearsing conversations, and noticing interaction patterns that affect relationships and intimacy.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust the plan together if something isn’t helping. That teamwork helps find the most useful path forward.

Online therapy offers flexibility and makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited, live chat fits quick check-ins or brief reflections, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reminders and short updates between sessions. These options let people keep continuity of care while managing work, family, or travel commitments.
