About Nazanin

Nazanin Kavoussi is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-R) based in New York who supports people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, relationship challenges, ADHD, trauma, and a broad range of life changes.

Background and approach

With a decade of clinical experience she has worked with clients from varied socioeconomic backgrounds and addresses concerns such as grief, self-esteem, intimacy and sexual issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting struggles, career transitions, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and coping with loss or change.

Her practice emphasizes collaboration and individualized care, shaping each conversation and treatment plan around the person in front of her. She integrates cognitive-behavioral strategies, psycho-education, and mindfulness to build practical skills, improve self-awareness, and reduce distress.

Nazanin frames therapy as a partnership that encourages growth, motivation, and strengthened coping capacity. She invites those ready to pursue change to take an initial step toward greater well-being, offering supportive guidance and a focus on actionable tools.

Nazanin brings steady clinical experience and a calm, empowering presence to the therapeutic process.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Access

Many clients benefit from cognitive-behavioral techniques, which focus on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and developing actionable skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change behaviors. This approach often includes structured exercises and goal-setting to produce measurable improvements.

Mindfulness-based practices are also used to increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity to stress, which can help with emotion regulation, sleep difficulties, and coping with grief or trauma reminders. Psycho-education complements these methods by providing clear information about symptoms and practical strategies clients can apply between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and then adapt or combine techniques to create a tailored treatment plan. Clients are encouraged to provide feedback so methods can be adjusted over time.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it possible to fit care into busy schedules and to continue work from home or other locations. These formats support ongoing skill practice, regular check-ins, and timely support while allowing licensed professionals to guide progress and adapt care as needs evolve.
