Najamulsahr "Najam" Mehmood

Najamulsahr "Najam" Mehmood is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with 15 years of clinical experience. She previously worked as a physician and now focuses full time on psychotherapy. Najam offers a calm, respectful presence for people facing everyday and deep-rooted struggles.

She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and relationship or family challenges. She also addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment concerns, communication problems, divorce and separation, and mood disorders. Narcissism and post-traumatic stress are among her additional focus areas.

Najam draws on mindfulness and hypnotherapy alongside broader evidence-based therapeutic techniques to tailor sessions to each person. That means she uses practices that help ground attention, reduce anxiety, and guide new ways of responding to difficult feelings.

Her background as a medical doctor informs a practical approach to care. Sessions tend to be straightforward and compassionate, with attention to both physical and emotional factors. She emphasizes listening, respect, and sensitivity in the work.

Najam speaks English and Urdu. People curious about starting therapy can expect a collaborative process focused on small, manageable steps toward clearer thinking and steadier mood.

Approaches that support healing and change

Najam combines mindfulness practice with hypnotherapy while also drawing on evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Mindfulness involves learning simple attention and breathing exercises to reduce reactivity and calm the nervous system, which can help with anxiety, stress, and mood concerns. Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to help people access thoughts and feelings that might be harder to reach during ordinary talk, and it can support work on habits, self-esteem, and trauma-related symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the early work. Najam will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques match their goals, comfort level, and needs. That means checking in about what feels helpful, adjusting methods over time, and combining tools rather than using a single fixed method.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options when booking since specific formats are not listed here. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce commute time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people continue care while managing other responsibilities. Licensed professionals can adapt mindfulness exercises and hypnotherapy for a virtual setting, and Najam will explain how sessions will run and what to expect before you begin.
