About Maurshia

Maurshia Guice is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Texas with six years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, and issues related to LGBT identity. Her practice also addresses addictions and problems that trace back to family relationships.

She focuses on how early family roles and patterns affect current life. That includes family of origin issues, attachment concerns, and difficulties with communication or boundaries. Sessions look at what repeats from the past and how those patterns show up now.

Her approach blends several methods. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice thoughts and choose meaningful action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and test different behaviors. Attachment-Based Therapy guides conversations about closeness, trust, and how people relate to others.

In sessions she takes a client-centered stance, listening to each person’s priorities and adjusting the work to fit their goals. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills may be introduced when people need practical tools for emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness.

Maurshia encourages direct, practical steps alongside reflective work about family history. She helps people practice new ways of relating, speaking, and setting limits. People who want to understand how family patterns still influence their choices often find this focus helpful.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, avoidance, and making clearer life choices. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns of closeness and trust; it helps when people want to change how they relate to partners or family members.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening and responding to each person’s priorities. Together the therapist and client decide which methods to try based on the client’s needs and goals. That collaborative approach means the work can shift as new priorities emerge.

Confirm the specific online session options before booking since the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also supports ongoing practice of skills between meetings, such as ACT exercises or CBT behavior experiments, which can be reviewed together during sessions.
