Mahsa Maghsoudi, LCPC

Mahsa Maghsoudi, LCPC, helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, and the aftermath of trauma and abuse. She speaks English and Persian and works from Kansas. Her approach aims to make therapy feel manageable and focused on real-life changes.

Mahsa brings ten years of clinical experience to sessions. She combines several evidence-based techniques to match what each person needs. Conversations are practical and down to earth, centered on skills people can use between sessions. She emphasizes clear goals and small steps toward those goals.

Her work often addresses attachment and abandonment worries, communication problems, and caregiver stress. She also supports people coping with body image, guilt and shame, impulsivity, loneliness, and life-purpose questions. Financial worries and mood concerns are included when they affect daily life.

Mahsa integrates cognitive-behavioral methods and dialectical behavior strategies alongside trauma-informed ideas. That means sessions can focus on changing unhelpful thoughts, building emotion regulation skills, and creating safer ways to process painful memories. The exact mix depends on what each person needs.

Her training includes a master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling and a doctorate in Counselor Education and Supervision. She uses that background to offer practical guidance and to help people develop coping tools that fit their lives. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability.

How evidence-based methods translate to online care

Mahsa commonly draws on cognitive-behavioral techniques that look at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. These methods teach practical exercises to shift unhelpful thinking and to build new habits that reduce anxiety and improve mood.

She also uses dialectical behavior ideas focused on emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. Those skills help with intense feelings, impulsivity, and relationship challenges by giving concrete strategies to practice outside sessions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then suggest techniques to try. Adjustments are made over time based on what helps most, so the plan evolves with the client’s needs.

Session formats are not specified in the available profile, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, reduce travel time, and let people work on skills in the settings where they live. It can also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight or phone-based meetings when video is difficult. Licensed professionals aim to match the format and approach to what will be most useful for each person.
