About Mahroo

Mahroo Moshari is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in New York. She draws on two decades of practice to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, parenting struggles, and relationship concerns. She emphasizes emotional connection and practical skills in sessions.

That means helping clients name feelings, notice patterns, and try small changes that ease daily life. She also uses tools from cognitive behavioral approaches to challenge unhelpful thoughts and build coping routines.

Background and approach

Mahroo often supports people dealing with grief, trauma, sleep problems, anger, or identity and self-esteem challenges. She also works with parents and those handling blended family issues, adoption and foster care concerns, caregiver strain, and workplace compassion fatigue. Her background includes long experience with youth and with culturally diverse clients.

Therapy with her mixes listening, gentle guidance, and clear steps people can use between sessions. Clients learn problem-solving and communication skills. Sessions aim to reduce worry and increase emotional awareness so decisions feel clearer.

She offers sessions in English, Italian, and Persian. Over the years she has helped people facing big life changes, bipolar challenges, ADHD, and complex mood or personality issues with steady practical support. The focus is on what helps the person now and what builds resilience for the future.

Online support

Emotion-focused and practical approaches online

Mahroo uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and name strong feelings and to work on how emotions shape important relationships. EFT can be useful for reducing anxiety tied to closeness, improving communication, and building stronger emotional responses.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which means sessions focus on the person's experience and values. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps clients find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is part of her toolbox too and is used to spot unhelpful thoughts, try new behaviors, and build coping routines that reduce anxiety and depressive moods.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try methods together, and adjust the plan when something does not fit. That collaborative process helps find what actually helps in daily life.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use video. Live chat and text-based messaging work for short check-ins, homework support, or when scheduling a longer session is difficult. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent alongside work, school, or family commitments.
