Thank you for taking the important step of seeking therapy to improve your mental health and build a healthier, happier you. It takes great strength to recognize the need for change and actively work towards it. Self-discovery and personal growth are continuous processes, and setbacks are normal. Don't let them discourage you from reaching your true potential. Remember that having someone to listen and be there for you can make a significant difference.
I am licensed in New York with 8 years of professional work experience. As a therapist, I firmly believe that all individuals possess the power to know what is best for them. In my therapy practice, I provide a safe and non-judgmental space for clients to deconstruct their worries, traumas, self-doubt, and other concerns that are making their lives painful. My focus is on empowering my clients to identify their strengths, recognize their legacy, and work on their limitations using eclectic therapy techniques tailored to their specific needs.
In my therapy practice, I have had the honor of helping individuals navigate a variety of struggles, including substance abuse, domestic violence, self-esteem, life transitions, decision-making, challenges of adapting to a new culture, and relationship/dating issues. My expertise in multiple languages and experience working with marginalized and immigrant populations, particularly South Asians, has given me a deeper insight into their distinctive challenges and requirements.
With my professional guidance and support, clients can work towards understanding and managing their issues more healthily, leading to the more fulfilling life they deserve.
Additional areas of focus: Communication problems, Divorce and separation, Isolation / loneliness, Life purpose, Midlife crisis, Mood disorders, Post-traumatic stress, Self-love, Women's issues

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Nusrat Siraj. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I’ve only had a couple of sessions with Nusrat but each one felt so substantial and transformative. I’ve gone to therapy for 10+ years and I have not had a therapist that approached me with such a great balance of professional, lived experience, and respect. I like that she gives me homework and suggested reading materials. She’s great at balancing the session with me venting or sharing and her using her personal shared cultural experience to help bring perspective. I’m so happy that I was able to customize my preferences and find Nusrat! Looking forward to more sessions with her.

If you're in need of a therapist who truly cares about your well-being and takes the time to listen to your needs, I highly recommend Nusrat. I have had the pleasure of working with her and can confidently say that she is the best therapist out there. Her thoughtfulness and attentiveness make you feel heard and understood, and she goes above and beyond to provide the support and guidance I need. I recommend Nusrat to anyone seeking a compassionate and dedicated therapist.
