Getting to know Safyah Alam

IMPORTANT: Thriveworks cannot provide services to clients with Medicaid coverage. If you have Medicaid, please contact your plan directly to find an in-network provider. For all other insurance plans, Thriveworks will verify your benefits after you book through Zocdoc. If verification isn't completed before your visit, you'll be charged our self-pay rate of $200 for that session. AFTER YOU BOOK: Complete these steps to avoid cancellation or being switched to self-pay. 1. Check your email for instructions to set up your Thriveworks account. Within your Thriveworks’ account, sign consent forms and add a valid credit card, which will be automatically charged for copays, fees, post-insurance balances, and self-pay amounts. 2. If using insurance, upload clear photos of the front and back of your insurance card. 3. Expect a confirmation call from our team to verify your information and answer questions. CANCELLATION POLICY: Provide 48 hours advance notice to avoid the $135 late cancellation fee. Safyah Alam is a LPC with 8 years of experiencing working with adolescents and adults to address anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship conflicts, and personality disorders. She is passionate about social justice, redefining cultural and gender roles, and being true to self without sacrificing personal integrity and core values. Safyah is kind, patient, and understanding with all of her clients regardless of cultural, religious, and racial identities. Her open demeanor helps people lower the walls they have built to protect themselves and share their stories in a non-judgmental space. Safyah received her Master's in Clinical Psychology from Univeristy of Houston Clear Lake. She draws on elements from humanistic therapy, culturally-sensitive therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and compassion-focused therapy to create a customized treatment plan for her clients.
