Zakiyyah Ibrahim, LGPC

Practicing Since: 2024

Zakiyyah Ibrahim creates a warm, non-judgmental space where clients feel safe to explore their emotions and experiences. She integrates ACT, interpersonal, psychodynamic, and humanistic approaches to foster connection, self-awareness, and growth. Her therapeutic style emphasizes empathy, validation, and helping clients align their actions with their values.

Zakiyyah views mental health as both personal and collective, believing healing happens within ourselves and in community. She is especially passionate about working with neurodivergent women and people of color, as well as clients navigating anxiety, mood disorders, sexual trauma, complex PTSD, and identity-related concerns.

With a strong background in psychological research, Zakiyyah brings both compassion and curiosity to her work. Outside of therapy, she enjoys poetry, painting, museums, and spending time with her cat, Langston.

Zakiyyah is licensed in Maryland (#LGP15758) under the supervision of Miranda Layton, LCSW-C (#13740).
