Saima Shaik, LCPC

Psychotherapist
6319 Fairview Ave, Ste 102, Westmont, IL
I believe healing happens through compassion, connection, and culturally humble care. In my work with adolescents, emerging adults, and adults, I create a safe, collaborative space to explore challenges like anxiety, depression, PTSD, grief, body image concerns, life transitions, and multicultural stressors. I use a trauma-informed approach that blends EMDR, CBT, DBT, and mindfulness-based tools, including guided meditation, to support emotional regulation and lasting change. Outside the therapy room, I’ve taught clinical psychology and co-founded Project Taqwa, a Muslim mental health organization focused on accessibility and prevention. I earned my Master’s in Clinical Psychology from Benedictine University. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, I’m honored to walk beside each client as they heal, grow, and reclaim their strength.
