About Maurice
Dr. Maurice Stewart is a New York LCSW-R with 36 years of clinical experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, anger, bipolar disorder, depression, addictions, grief, intimacy concerns, career stress, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. He conducts sessions in English and accepts international clients.
His style is straightforward and practical. He listens, then helps people talk through what is happening and what they want to change. He adapts conversations and plans to the person in front of him rather than using one fixed method.
In sessions he focuses on concrete steps that reduce heated reactions and recurring patterns. That can include identifying warning signs of rising anger, testing small behavioral changes, and practicing different ways to respond in tense moments. He also supports people coping with mood swings or the fallout from addiction and grief.
Dr. Stewart draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide work on mood, behavior, and relationships. He explains options plainly and helps people pick approaches that match their goals. He aims to keep things practical and focused on what will change day-to-day life.
For someone worried about frequent outbursts, simmering resentment, or another person’s anger, he offers direct conversation about triggers and alternatives. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online therapy options button.
Evidence-based approaches and how online sessions fit
Dr. Stewart uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood and behavior in practical terms. Cognitive-behavioral approaches focus on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviors; this helps with anger flare-ups, anxiety, and depressive patterns. Skills-based work teaches concrete coping tools such as breathing, pause-and-plan steps, and short behavioral experiments to change reactions in heated moments.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. He will review options with each person, consider their goals and daily life, and together decide which techniques to try first. The plan can change as work progresses so you get methods that fit your needs.
The biography does not list session formats explicitly, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or remove the need to travel to an office. Licensed professionals can still use the same practical exercises and skill practice over video or phone, while keeping the focus on steps that reduce angry reactions and improve mood and relationships.
