About Mahroo
Mahroo Moshari is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in New York with 20 years of experience. She uses a multicultural, person-focused style to help people who feel stuck, anxious, or overwhelmed. Her work is straightforward and practical, aimed at building self-awareness and stronger relationships.
She often helps people dealing with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, stress, grief, trauma, and life changes. She also supports parents and caregivers who are managing family tensions, blended family issues, or the stresses of parenting. Adoption and foster care concerns are included among her areas of focus.
Moshari draws on several approaches, including client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, and emotionally-focused work. She uses these tools to help people notice unhelpful thinking, improve communication, and manage strong emotions. Sessions emphasize clear skills you can use between meetings.
Her multicultural perspective shapes how she understands identity and cultural stressors. She works with people who grew up in different cultural environments and may have faced stigma around their feelings. That background informs how she listens and offers practical strategies that fit each person's life.
Sessions are aimed at creating trust, respect, and a sense of collaboration. Clients learn problem-solving skills, coping strategies, and ways to address relationship patterns. The goal is steady, usable change rather than quick fixes.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps people feel heard and develop their own goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood. Emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) helps people identify strong emotions and improve how they connect with others, which can shift relationship patterns.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work together with the client to identify goals, try approaches, and adjust methods based on what helps most. That means goals and techniques can change as progress is made.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as current options are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, save travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also makes it possible to use worksheets, thought records, and communication exercises between sessions so skills are practiced in real life. Licensed professionals can help tailor session length and focus to match daily routines and responsibilities.
