About Nazanin

Nazanin Kavoussi is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with psychotherapy privilege (LCSW-R) based in New York. She has ten years of experience helping people who are dealing with depression, anxiety, stress, addiction concerns, and low self-esteem.

She also supports those coping with career shifts, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

How Nazanin works

She includes LGBT and parenting concerns among the issues she addresses. Her style is practical and collaborative. Sessions focus on clear goals and skills people can use between meetings.

She uses straightforward conversation, education about how thoughts and behaviors connect, and mindfulness to help people manage symptoms and make changes. Nazanin adapts treatment to each person’s needs and circumstances. She will shape the conversation and the plan to fit where a person is starting from and what they want to achieve.

The work aims to build coping skills, increase motivation, and strengthen self-esteem. Reaching out for help can feel hard, and Nazanin emphasizes support and empowerment during that first step. People who want a therapist who blends skill-building with calm, practical guidance may find her approach useful.

Online support options

Evidence-based approaches and online care

She commonly uses cognitive-behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and try new behaviors, useful for anxiety, depression, and many daily struggles. She also incorporates psycho-education to explain how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect so people can make informed changes. Mindfulness practices are offered to increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity for stress, trauma symptoms, and emotion regulation.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will work together with each person to identify goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. That collaborative process makes it easier to focus on practical skills and meaningful change.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which let people connect in ways that fit their schedule and needs. Video works well for deeper conversations when seeing facial cues matters. Phone sessions can be a good alternative when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, skill practice, or when someone needs flexibility during a busy day.
