My name is Najm Zaman, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges, heal from trauma, and build lasting resilience!

My professional journey spans over 15 years across clinical practice, healthcare operations, and community leadership.

While I work with a wide range of individuals, my primary areas of specialization include:

• Trauma and Stressor-Related Disorders
• Anxiety and Mood Management
• Life Transitions and Identity Development
• Youth, Young Adult, and Family Dynamics

I'm a psychiatric nurse practitioner with several years of experience, now building my own private practice so I can give each person the focused, personalized care they deserve. I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, and PTSD — conditions that can feel isolating, but often respond well to the right support and the right provider. I offer telehealth appointments, including evenings and weekends, so getting care fits into your life rather than the other way around. Whether you're looking for medication management, ongoing mental health support, or simply a place to start, I'm here to walk alongside you every step of the way.

Hi! I’m Lisa, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, with over 12 years of experience in the school setting. I am also a wife to a first responder and a mom of 2. I offer individual therapy for teens and adults navigating ADHD, anxiety, burnout and the general overwhelm that can come with everyday life. I have a special interest in supporting educators, first responder families and parents who feel stretched too thin. If your mind moves quickly, your to-do list never ends, or you often feel behind no matter how hard you try - you are not alone!

With almost a decade of experience working as a therapist, I have supported and worked with a diverse population of children, adolescents, adults, and couples through a variety of life challenges. My clinical interests include working with adults to maneuver life challenges around identity and narrative work, role exploration, attachment, and understanding complexities around family dynamics as an adult, all through a relational lens. I became a therapist because I truly believe in the importance of self-discovery and growth and I enjoy collaboratively working with clients to support, encourage, and acquire skills to better manage and understand their stressors, allowing them to feel more empowered and in control of their life.

I offer support and skills to those exploring identity, intimacy, or relational complexity—whether in gender, sexuality, kink, or deocolonized relationships. They may be sitting with grief, unraveling the impact of trauma, or feeling the weight of past experiences in their body. They long for connection but struggle with vulnerability, trust, or belonging. Some feel stuck in cycles of overwhelm, while others are questioning the stories they’ve been told about who they are. They seek a space where they can be seen without judgment, process their experiences, and make sense of the systems shaping their lives.

As a Marriage and Family Therapist and ADHD specialist, I help individuals and couples improve their relationships and manage challenges related to communication, ADHD, parenting, and daily stress. Relationships play a big role in our well-being—they can bring closeness and joy, but also tension and disconnection. In therapy, I’ll help you notice patterns that may be keeping you stuck, let go of what isn’t working, and build healthier, more fulfilling connections. I also support individuals in handling the demands of work, parenting, and relationships with more balance and confidence.
