About Rowna
Rowna Showghi is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with 19 years of experience. She offers psychotherapy and coaching to adults dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, and related issues. Sessions are presented in a straightforward, practical way so people can address problems that interfere with daily life.
She draws on client-centered principles and goal-focused techniques. That means conversations focus on what matters to the person and on clear steps to try between sessions. Rowna also uses methods from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and mindfulness to help people notice patterns and test new responses.
Her background includes work in child welfare, psychiatric research, crisis intervention and counseling, active duty military settings, inpatient and outpatient therapy, and hospice. Those roles shaped how she approaches complex situations and layered issues, such as when grief, chronic health problems, or caregiving stress overlap with mood or anger challenges.
In sessions she helps people identify what intensifies their anger and frustration, and then practices skills to reduce reactivity and improve communication. She emphasizes trying small, manageable changes and building routines that support better daily functioning.
Rowna supports clients who are exploring coaching alongside therapy to reach practical goals. She accepts international clients and conducts work in English. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How Rowna uses evidence-based approaches online
Rowna integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in practical ways. ACT helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and clarifies values to guide action. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying behavioral experiments to change patterns that fuel anger and anxiety.She also uses client-centered work that emphasizes listening and collaboration. Together the therapist and client decide which approach fits the issue, goals, and personal preferences. That helps keep sessions focused on concrete next steps rather than abstract discussion alone.
Her biography emphasizes telehealth services but does not list specific online session formats. Confirm the available session formats before booking so you know what to expect. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people use mindfulness or behavioral exercises in their usual environments. The therapist will work with each person to choose practical techniques that fit their life and schedule.
