Ayma siddiqui, LPC

I believe that healing happens in the context of a safe, supportive relationship—one built on trust, warmth, and genuine understanding. Therapy can be a space where you feel accepted just as you are, while also feeling supported in the process of becoming who you want to be. I’m currently pursuing my M.S. in Counseling – Clinical Mental Health at DePaul University. Through my academic training and hands-on experience, I’ve supported individuals navigating a range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, eating disorders, career transitions, identity exploration, and major life changes.

As a Clinical Intern at Clarity Clinic, I bring both evidence-based tools and a deeply human approach to the work I do. My therapeutic lens is informed by Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I see emotional pain—whether rooted in negative self-beliefs, unresolved trauma, or attachment wounds—as something that often begins in early experiences and is shaped by the broader cultural systems we live in.

I believe healing is possible through self-exploration, authentic connection, and learning new ways of relating to yourself and others. Whether you're looking for space to process complex emotions or hoping to build specific coping skills, I strive to create a balanced and collaborative environment. I meet clients with compassion, curiosity, and respect, always aiming to provide a space that feels safe, inclusive, and empowering. My hope is to help you reconnect with your strengths and take meaningful steps toward the life you want to live.
