My name is Binta, and I am a black Muslim therapist. As the daughter of Senegalese immigrants, I understand the challenges that come with being a first- and second-generation American, particularly when it comes to navigating the waters of gender identity, sexuality, class, and religion. Regardless of your identities, the center of my work lies in the co-creation of a collaborative therapeutic relationship with each client to support and empower each of them to grow and realize their potential. Through a trauma-informed and values-based lens, I believe that therapy can be a powerful tool in the face of life’s challenges.

We offer free 15 minute consultations by phone or video call. In person availability on select evenings and weekends. Are you depressed, anxious, or overwhelmed? These types of problems are common for most of us, but they can be effectively mitigated. You do not have to be a prisoner of your own mind! Change is a process, and unless you change something, most likely your struggles will only get worse.

'Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.' Along with happiness and opportunity life inevitably brings challenge, change, confusion, loss, stress and disappointment. At these times we can benefit from a supportive environment and through therapy we can learn how to take these experiences and use them as an opportunity for growth. I believe each person's task in life is to become an increasingly better person. To help you do this, I provide input to assist you in identifying and overcoming your barriers to enjoying a fulfilling life.

Couples therapy has been found to be least effective of all therapies, thus it is important for clients to seek out therapists who are versed in the latest research on couples and marital therapy. Besides having a knowledge base specific to couples work and extensive experience working with couples, I am trained in addiction work which has a strong comorbidity with couples issues. The unique couples approach I co-created with my wife, called Couples Synergy, works with couples over a 90 day period, and is not offered anywhere else in the country.
