Salaam, I’m Fatima!

I’m a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Maryland and the founder of Salaam Therapy LLC.

Drawing from my experiences as a South Asian Muslim woman, my approach to counseling is rooted in cultural sensitivity, recognizing and respecting the rich, diverse backgrounds and traditions within the American Muslim community.

My goal is to empower you to embrace positive change, help you build resilience and navigate life's ebbs and flows. Through our collaboration, we'll work towards fostering a sense of clarity, self-compassion, and lasting well-being.
