About SM

SM Noorahmed Siddiquee, LPC is a licensed therapist in Texas with three years of professional experience. He helps people address stress, anxiety, grief, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. He also works with concerns such as abandonment, body image, addiction, and feelings of emptiness.

Noorahmed uses practical conversation and active listening to identify patterns that keep problems going. He invites clients to notice thoughts and behaviors that make stress and anxiety worse. Together they try simple, doable strategies to change those patterns and test what helps in daily life.

His approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to target unhelpful thinking and on Client-Centered Therapy to focus on the client's perspective. He may also use elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Existential or Narrative ideas depending on what fits the client's goals.

Sessions tend to focus on clear goals, short-term skills, and real-world practice between meetings. Clients can expect straightforward exercises, guided reflection, and check-ins on progress. Noorahmed explains techniques in plain language and helps people choose which tools to try.

He works in English and Bengali and practices within Texas. For people thinking about starting, he asks for a brief matching questionnaire and a first session to outline reasonable next steps.

How his approaches translate to online sessions

SM Noorahmed Siddiquee often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thinking patterns and try clearer coping strategies. CBT focuses on changing thoughts and behaviors with practical exercises that can be discussed and adapted during sessions. Client-Centered Therapy is also part of his work and emphasizes listening closely to the client's experience and priorities to guide what to focus on. He may draw on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotional regulation and distress tolerance when those skills fit the situation.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative step. He will work with each person to identify goals, try techniques, and adjust methods when something is not helpful. The plan evolves from regular check-ins and brief skill practice between meetings.

Session format details should be confirmed before booking. When arranging online sessions, think about what fits your routine - shorter check-ins can fit a lunch break, phone-only meetings use less bandwidth, and video sessions allow for visual demonstrations of skills. Ask about the available session options so meetings can be scheduled in a way that fits everyday life.
