About the practice
“The journey toward becoming who you truly are isn't about figuring out how to love yourself. It's about tracing back every reason you stopped. Every wound that taught you to question your worth. Every story that made you believe love had to be earned. And then, little by little, letting those stories go.”

Tameer Siddiqui, PsyD
Dr. Tameer is a licensed clinical psychologist in Illinois (License #071.010884) with PSYPACT E.Passport and APIT authorization. Credentials that permit secure telepsychology across participating states. The practice is fully virtual and based in Chicago.
Clinical training is integrative: cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic foundations, woven through a transpersonal and Carl Jungian depth-oriented lens. Trauma-focused psychotherapy and EMDR anchor the structured side of the work; symbolic, archetypal, and soul-level inquiry anchor the depth side. The orientation is collaborative, paced, and tailored. Every engagement begins by understanding the person in front of me, then choosing the path that fits.
Where the practice can see you
PSYPACT. 43 jurisdictions, fully virtual.
Through the Psychology Interjurisdictional Compact (PSYPACT) E.Passport and APIT authorization, Dr. Tameer can provide secure telepsychology to clients located in any of the shaded states and the District of Columbia.
How sessions work
Sessions are conducted by default over a secure, HIPAA-aligned video platform. Audio-only video and full telephone sessions are available when video isn't workable, for sensory reasons, low-bandwidth environments, or days when being on camera is simply too much.
Insurance-covered individual psychotherapy uses standard 55-minute sessions. Private-pay sessions are typically 60 minutes at a $200/hour rate. Clients may request up to 90 minutes ahead of time, depending on clinical fit, clinician availability, and scheduling.
Who this practice serves
Adults 18+ who are looking for:
- Thoughtful, evidence-based psychotherapy without rushed visits
- A clinician fluent in both practical change and depth inquiry
- Space to explore symbolic, archetypal, and soul-level material alongside the clinical work
- A neurodivergent-affirming, low-pressure clinical environment
- Stable, secure telehealth that fits an adult life
This work tends to resonate with people moving through an ego death, a soul awakening, a long-quiet grief, or a season where the old story has stopped fitting. Clients who are open to symbolic and archetypal exploration, including tarot as a reflective tool in session when desired, often find a home here.
