About Nazanin
Nazanin Kavoussi is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with psychotherapy privilege (LCSW-R) practicing in New York. She supports people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties, substance issues, relationship strain, low self-esteem, grief, and work or life transitions. Nazanin writes treatment plans to fit each person's needs and goals.
She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and psycho-education in sessions. That means helping clients spot unhelpful thought patterns, try small behavior changes, and learn skills they can use outside of therapy. Conversations are practical and aimed at building coping skills and clearer routines.
Nazanin has about 10 years of experience working with people from different backgrounds. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and invites clients to set the pace and direction. Sessions focus on achievable steps rather than long lectures.
Her work often centers on sleep and rest concerns alongside mood, addiction, and relationship issues. For sleep problems she emphasizes routine, manageable habits, and attention to stressors that disrupt rest.
Nazanin encourages people to take a first step when they feel ready. She helps create realistic plans and offers steady support as clients try new strategies. The emphasis is on small changes that add up over time.
How evidence-based techniques translate to online care
Many of Nazanin's core techniques are described as straightforward, skill-based approaches that transfer well to remote work. Cognitive behavioral methods focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes; they help with anxiety, low mood, sleep habits, and managing cravings. Mindfulness practices teach simple attention and breathing exercises to reduce stress and improve rest. Psycho-education involves clear explanation of patterns and simple tools people can practice between sessions.Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist and client will review goals, try techniques, and adjust based on what helps. That collaborative process helps match strategies to a client's daily routines and needs.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow ongoing follow-up when life gets hectic. It also makes brief check-ins or skill-focused sessions easier to schedule around work or family commitments. Ask about specific session formats when you begin the matching process so arrangements meet your needs.
