🌷Welcome to Mahimatch — where matches are curated for emotional compatibility, not calculated by algorithms.

Welcome to Your Mahimatch 🌹

Welcome to Mahimatch

Where your therapist is also your matchmaker…
Who can be a better matchmaker than a therapist?

Hi, I’m Mahiboob! but you can call me Mahi

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 20 years of experience, I’ve had the honor of working with individuals and couples from all backgrounds. My focus has always been on helping people heal from life’s challenges, including relationship struggles, stress, anxiety, and depression.

But over time, I realized that many of my clients were feeling frustrated by the endless cycle of swiping on dating apps, looking for a connection that never seemed to come.

Tired of Swiping? Let’s Find You Real Connection

Dating apps can feel like a game. The endless swiping, the mismatched dates, and the uncertainty about whether you’ll ever meet someone truly compatible—it can be exhausting. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Many of my clients share the same frustration, which is why I decided to step in as a matchmaker.

As a therapist, I understand human connection in ways that algorithms simply can’t. I don’t rely on swiping or technology to match you with someone. Instead, I focus on compatibility and genuine connections—the kind that lead to real relationships, not just ā€œmatchesā€ on a screen.

Why a Therapist as Your Matchmaker?

As a licensed therapist, I’ve spent years helping people better understand themselves and their relationships. I don’t just match you based on a set of data points; I match you based on what really matters to you—your personality, your values, and your emotional needs.

  • No algorithms.
  • No random matches.
  • Just you, and a partner who truly understands you.

If you’re tired of dates that feel forced or unfulfilling, I’m here to offer a different approach. I believe in the power of quality over quantity—it’s better to find one person who is a true match for you than to sit through endless, awkward dates hoping something will click.

Multicultural Expertise for Meaningful Connections

As a South Asian therapist, I deeply understand the richness and complexity of multicultural backgrounds. I specialize in working with clients from diverse cultural backgrounds, and I know how important it is to honor and respect those cultural values when it comes to relationships.

You don’t need to explain your culture or family dynamics to me. With one word, I understand the importance of your cultural background in shaping your relationship preferences and values.

I know that your unique cultural identity matters, and it will play a key role in the matchmaking process.

How It Works: Your Personalized Matchmaking Experience

1. Consultation

We'll begin with a personalized consultation where I’ll take the time to truly understand you—your relationship goals, values, and what you’re looking for in a partner. This step forms the foundation of the matchmaking process, ensuring we’re aligned and can work together to find the best match for you.

2. Personalized Matchmaking

Forget algorithms. I’ll use my expertise in human behavior and compatibility to carefully hand- pick potential matches for you. Each match will be someone I believe has the emotional, mental, and personal qualities that align with your needs.

3. Therapeutic Support Throughout

As a therapist or as a life coach, I’m here to support you not just in finding the right match, but in building a strong, healthy relationship once you’re matched. My therapy or coaching sessions can help guide you through any challenges you face in your relationship, ensuring you have the tools you need for long-term success.

Let’s Find You a Meaningful Connection

You deserve more than swiping through endless profiles and going on dates with no spark. I’m here to help you find someone you can genuinely connect with, based on real compatibility and shared values.

It’s time to stop the cycle of frustration and start building a lasting relationship that truly brings you happiness.

Ready to take the next step? Let’s start your matchmaking journey today! Book your consultation, and I’ll help you find the person who’s the right fit for you—no more guessing, no more endless swiping.

For Individual therapy:

Mahiboob is an amazing therapist! This was my first time doing therapy and I genuinely loved every minute of it. When I started, I was extremely anxious about my relationships and my job. Weekly sessions with Mahiboob definitely made my life easier. She pointed out the thinking patterns I was caught in and gave me amazing techniques to help ground myself and ways to change my thinking. By the end of my sessions, it felt like I was talking to a friend rather than a therapist. I'm grateful to have met and worked with Mahiboob on my mental health!Extremely open minded and bondable. Highly recommend her expertise I have had two session with Mahiboob thus far and she has been such a great listener and easy to talk to. As a first generation Asian-American, I also very much appreciate the fact that she takes into account the cultural components I bring to our discussions. She has been reassuring, transparent, and insightful. I look forward to my future sessions with her

Why Mahimatch is Different (Like, Actually Different)

Let’s be honest: dating apps can feel like shopping for love in a blackout. Endless swipes, random matches, and no one's actually reading your profile. That’s why I created Mahimatch — because love shouldn’t feel like a game you never signed up to play.

Mahimatch is where therapy meets matchmaking, and where personal growth meets real connection. Whether you're single, in the dating game, or in a relationship that could use a tune-up — you're in the right place.

Here’s what sets Mahimatch apart:

  • 🌟 It’s Personal — Not Algorithmic. You’re not just a profile with a filtered selfie. I actually get to know you — quirks, red flags, green flags, past patterns, and all.
  • 🧠 Emotional Readiness Comes First. Carrying a bit of baggage? Great. We’ll unpack it together, so you don’t accidentally throw it at someone new. I help you and your future match show up healed and whole.
  • ā¤ļø It’s Not Just About Finding Someone — It’s About Becoming Someone. You’ll grow. You’ll gain insight. You’ll learn how to communicate without spiraling into overthinking. (We’ve all been there.)
  • šŸ” It’s a One-Stop Love Shop. Therapy, life coaching, matchmaking — all under one (virtual) roof. Whatever your season, I’ve got a service for that.
  • šŸ‘« Already Coupled? Great! You don’t need to be single to work with me. Couples coaching helps deepen your bond, upgrade your communication, and stop the same fight from happening every Sunday night.
  • šŸŒ It’s Trauma-Informed and Culturally Aware. I bring 20+ years of experience working with diverse individuals and couples — because love isn’t one-size-fits-all, and neither is healing.

Mahimatch is where heart, humor, and healing meet. Whether you're looking for your person — or becoming the best version of yourself for when they show up — I’ve got you. And if you’re already in a relationship, I can help you strengthen it so it stays healthy, connected, and strong for the long run.
