About Rowna

Rowna Showghi is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, and other life challenges. She offers a calm, practical approach aimed at helping people feel more capable and less overwhelmed. Rowna lists Men’s wellbeing among her interests and welcomes people who want to focus on that area.

Rowna brings 19 years of mental health work across settings such as child welfare, psychiatric research, crisis counseling, hospice, and both inpatient and outpatient therapy. That background informs a broad view of how life events, relationships, and physical symptoms connect. She often talks about how anxiety and chronic pain can feed each other, and uses that idea to shape practical plans.

Her practice emphasizes client-centered conversations and solution-focused steps. Sessions are aimed at helping people identify small, useful changes and turn those into routines that support daily life. Rowna combines this with evidence-informed techniques such as cognitive behavioral methods, acceptance and commitment ideas, mindfulness, and skills from dialectical behavior therapy when helpful.

People who work with her can expect a collaborative pace. She listens for each person’s goals and then helps set achievable actions. Rowna also includes coaching elements for those who want focused, goal-oriented work alongside therapy.

Her overall aim is to support stronger coping, clearer choices, and a higher quality of life. To begin, prospective clients follow the site’s process to match and schedule a session with her.

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them, then choose actions that align with their values; it can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thinking patterns and testing them with practical exercises to reduce symptoms like worry, low mood, and unhelpful behaviors. Mindfulness Therapy trains attention to the present moment and can reduce reactivity and improve coping for stress and grief.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences, explain options, and suggest a blend of methods suited to your needs. Together you set short-term goals and check progress as you go.

The biography highlights telehealth services but does not list specific formats, so confirm the available session types before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example it can save travel time, allow check-ins during a lunch break, or make it simpler to schedule consecutive appointments. It also supports ongoing work such as practicing CBT exercises between sessions and using mindfulness tools in day-to-day routines. Licensed professionals tailor the online experience to your pace and goals, helping translate therapeutic skills into everyday habits.
