About Us

Myndful Therapy is a mental health practice dedicated to the emotional wellness of Black girls, women, and communities. Founded by Shanita Newman, LCPC, our practice was born from the belief that healing must be rooted in cultural truth, authentic connection, and deep care. We recognize that traditional therapy models often overlook the lived experiences of Black clients—and at Myndful, we are here to change that.

​

Our work centers identity, community, and compassion. Therapy with us goes beyond symptom management; it’s a space to explore your story, reclaim your voice, and develop tools for resilience, joy, and self-love. Whether you're navigating anxiety, trauma, self-esteem, or life transitions, we walk alongside you with empathy and intention.

At Myndful Therapy, healing is not a destination—it’s a journey grounded in who you are, where you come from, and who you’re becoming.
