About Mousumi

Mousumi Mallik is an Ohio-licensed LPCC with three years of professional counseling experience and a background that spans human services work across Uganda, India, and Northwest Ohio.

Background and approach

She earned a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Bowling Green State University and is pursuing a doctoral degree in Counselor Education and Supervision at the University of Toledo. Her international and teaching experience informs a multicultural, developmentally attuned perspective when working with clients of varied ages and backgrounds.

Her clinical interests include a wide range of concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy-related issues, grief, ADHD, and challenges related to caregiving and serious illness. She has worked with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and groups, and brings trauma-informed, person-centered values to the therapeutic relationship.

Mallik favors approaches that emphasize empowerment and resilience, drawing on narrative methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, and solution-focused strategies to help clients set practical goals. Known for a therapeutic stance rooted in kindness, empathy, and humility, she tailors conversations and treatment plans to each person’s needs.

As a cancer survivor who has supported others through diagnosis and treatment, she brings both professional and personal insight to work with health-related life changes and persistent mental health challenges.

Evidence-Based Methods and Online Access

Many clients benefit from approaches that build skills and reframe experiences. Cognitive behavioral techniques focus on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. Narrative therapy helps people examine the stories they tell about themselves and reshape those narratives to reflect strengths and preferred outcomes, which can be useful for trauma, identity, and relationship concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each client to explore goals, preferences, and the presenting challenges, then recommends strategies and adjusts the plan over time so it fits the individual's needs and progress.

Online sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats allow continued access to licensed professionals from home, while enabling consistent follow-up and skills practice between meetings.
