About Us

In 2008, a group of mental health professionals came together as a result of a shared interest in addressing the unmet mental health needs of the Muslim community. In order to help fill that need, these professionals decided to establish a referral website listing Muslim mental health providers, providers of other faiths who are attuned to the needs of Muslims, and other individuals who assist community members with life’s challenges. We hope that this multi-disciplinary list will help anyone who accesses it find someone who fits their needs, and that those interested in improving their mental health in general will benefit from the other resources included on the website insha’allah. 

The professionals listed on this website have in common experience and willingness to work with the Muslim community but may not necessarily be Muslim themselves. Please refer to each listing to learn more details about each provider.

We would like to acknowledge that these providers are not affiliated with one another, and each have their own strengths and philosophy of treatment. We hope the information provided will help you find someone that fits your particular situation. As with any service, we encourage you to check with state licensing boards for any other information that they may have about the provider you are thinking about visiting. It is appropriate to set up a session to “interview” a provider to ensure a good match. Research shows that the relationship between the therapist and the client is one of the most important factors in the effectiveness of the counseling. 

We have included some questions for you to consider asking in the preliminary phone call or visit (click here).
