Online options and therapeutic approach



Najam integrates mindfulness and hypnotherapy alongside traditional psychotherapy practices drawn from her years of clinical work. Mindfulness is presented as a way to notice thoughts and bodily sensations with increased awareness, which can help regulate stress and anxiety. Hypnotherapy is used as a focused, guided process to access relaxed attention and explore patterns related to trauma, habit, or emotional responses. These approaches are offered within a collaborative frame where the person and therapist decide together which techniques fit their concerns and preferences.

Her combined background as an MD and a full-time psychotherapist shapes how she discusses symptoms and treatment options, aiming to align therapeutic tools with each person’s goals. Najam conducts sessions using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different communication preferences. Those interested in working together can discuss which online formats and therapeutic methods feel most appropriate during an initial conversation.
