About Maurshia

Maurshia Guice is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Texas with six years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and relationship or family conflicts. She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Maurshia aims to create a plan that fits each person's needs and goals.

Her sessions focus on clear, practical conversation and small steps that build toward change. She listens for what matters most and tailors discussions and strategies to the situation. She works with issues related to codependency, attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, communication problems, and control or dependent personality patterns.

Maurshia draws on several therapy approaches to guide work in session. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take committed action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Attachment-based ideas inform how past relationships shape current patterns.

She also incorporates client-centered and dialectical behavior therapy techniques when they fit a person’s needs. These approaches support emotion regulation, improved communication, and clearer boundaries. Sessions aim to be practical, conversational, and focused on what will help day-to-day functioning.

Maurshia emphasizes partnership in therapy. She invites people to set goals and to try tools between meetings. Her style is encouraging and straightforward, with attention to real-life changes that matter to each person.

How therapy approaches shape online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values, which can reduce avoidance and increase purposeful action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and changing behavior patterns, a useful fit for anxiety, depression, and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and can be helpful for codependency, trust, and communication concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs to choose methods that fit. That decision is collaborative and may change as progress is made.

Confirm current session formats before booking so you know what options are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow check-ins between in-person commitments. They can also let someone choose quieter surroundings, use audio-only when bandwidth is limited, or schedule a shorter session during a work break. Licensed professionals tailor practical tools and homework to the realities of each person's life.
