About Nadia

Nadia Maghsadi is an MD and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor based in Maryland who helps people facing family conflict, trauma, anxiety, depression, and issues with self-esteem. She draws on a warm, patient style and clear, practical tools to help people feel steadier and more in control.

Her work blends a person-centered attitude with talk therapy techniques that look at thoughts, behaviors, and life stories. Nadia listens first, then offers straightforward steps to change patterns that cause stress or pain.

Background and approach

She also teaches breathing and mindfulness practices she learned as a yoga teacher. Her background includes work in inpatient care for girls, detention centers for juvenile boys, outpatient substance use treatment, domestic violence intervention programs, and the National Suicide Lifeline. That range of settings shaped a flexible approach to different kinds of crisis and recovery.

Nadia draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy to help people reframe unhelpful thoughts and revise the stories they tell about themselves. She also uses Client-Centered methods to keep sessions grounded in respect and empathy, and she incorporates Imago Relationship Therapy ideas when relationship dynamics are a focus.

As the child of Middle Eastern immigrants, she pays attention to multicultural concerns and how culture shapes values, shame, and identity. Nadia works with people dealing with grief, addictions, sexuality questions, parenting strain, forgiveness, and trauma-related issues like sexual assault and abuse. She has four years of clinical experience and communicates in English.

Sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist lists and does not check training records.

Online support

Approaches that translate well to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening with empathy and meeting people where they are. It helps when someone needs a calm, accepting space to talk about relationships, identity, guilt, or shame. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical exercises to change patterns that fuel anxiety, depression, or anger. Narrative Therapy helps people retell their life stories so painful events have less control over daily choices and self-worth.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring. Sessions often blend approaches so coping skills, emotional processing, and relationship work can happen together.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues for deeper conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat formats work well for brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to continue work from different locations.
