Mahsa Maghsoudi

Mahsa Maghsoudi, KS LCPC, has 10 years of clinical experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. She also supports individuals dealing with abandonment, attachment struggles, body image, caregiver stress, communication problems, control issues, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation, life purpose questions, money worries, mood disorders, and concerns about narcissism.

Mahsa combines practical, evidence-informed techniques in sessions. She uses clear, skills-based tools to help people manage intense emotions and rebuild day-to-day coping. Conversations focus on what is happening now and on small, doable steps that can change how someone handles stress and relationships.

Her training includes a master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from the University of North Texas and a doctorate in Counselor Education and Supervision from the University of Texas at San Antonio. She holds the Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor credential in Kansas (LCPC).

Sessions tend to be straightforward and goal-oriented. Mahsa listens for patterns that keep a person stuck, then introduces strategies to shift those patterns. She blends behavioral tools with attention to trauma-related reactions when needed.

People often come for help after big changes, losses, or when they feel aimless about work or relationships. She works with those concerns by focusing on current problems, building skills, and practicing alternatives in daily life.

Evidence-based approaches and how they work online

Mahsa commonly integrates cognitive behavioral techniques and trauma-informed methods in her work. Cognitive behavioral techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioral changes to reduce anxiety and low mood. Trauma-informed methods pay attention to how past distress affects current reactions and teach skills to manage intense feelings and triggers.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Mahsa collaborates with clients to decide which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She reviews what has helped before and adapts interventions so they are practical and realistic for daily life.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Video work supports face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions can be useful when lower bandwidth or a shorter check-in is preferable. Licensed professionals can help arrange session length and pacing to match work, caregiving, or other commitments.
