Hi! I am Madina Alam.
I’m a licensed mental health therapist based in Charlotte, North Carolina, specializing in anxiety-related disorders such as GAD, OCD, panic disorder, agoraphobia, and illness anxiety disorder.
I use a research-backed approach called Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) that is proven to be the most effective treatment for anxiety disorders.
Therapy That
Works Like
Personal Training
You would come to therapy, do some talking, but you’d also put into action what you know you need to do.
That’s how I structure sessions. Yes, we’ll process your thoughts and feelings, but we’ll also practice changes in real time, right there together.
I’m a firm believer that most people already know what they need to do. They just need help putting it into action.
Therapy with me should feel like personal training for your mind. It’s about building skills, facing fears, and strengthening your ability to handle whatever life throws at you.
Making Mental Health Bold and Approachable
I believe mental health deserves to be talked about boldly, openly, and without stigma. That’s why my motto is simple: saying how you feel is sexy.
I want therapy to feel approachable, empowering, and even stylish. Something you’re proud to invest in.
My Story Beyond
The Therapy Room
You may recognize me from The Bachelor, where I used my platform to share openly about mental health. I’ve also created a mental-health-inspired clothing line that was featured at New York Fashion Week, blending bold style with the message that therapy is for everyone.
My work continues to center around breaking stigma and helping people see that prioritizing mental health is not only powerful — it’s attractive.
