Our Approach
“Sutura”, derived from a multitude of languages, has various meanings such as trust, safety, reliability, and protection. Here at Sutura Therapy, we are a space that focuses on these values, guaranteeing that you will be heard and in safe hands.
Who We Are
My name is Fatou, I am a Licensed Social Worker Associate Independent Clinical, and I am trained to support adults experiencing a range of challenges, including mood disorders, anxiety, substance abuse, domestic violence, and interpersonal difficulties.
I am trained to support both adults and teens who are navigating a range of challenges. My areas of expertise include mood disorders, trauma, anxiety, substance abuse, domestic violence, postpartum depression, imposter syndrome, and work burnout.
My practice is inclusive, and I am experienced in working with individuals from all backgrounds, including people of color, LGBTQ+ individuals, and immigrants. I offer compassionate guidance for issues related to cultural adjustment, ensuring a supportive and understanding environment for everyone.
I believe in recognizing the unique potential within each individual. My approach is highly tailored to help clients harness their strengths and achieve their personal goals. I am deeply attuned to the specific needs of everyone I work with, ensuring that the therapeutic journey is both effective and empowering.
​
As a clinician at Sutura Therapy, I bring extensive training and experience in psychotherapeutic interventions to support clients in their personal growth. I earned my Master of Social Work from the University of Washington, where I cultivated a strong dedication to helping individuals create positive, lasting change in their lives.
​
My background, rooted in West Africa, fosters my ability to connect with individuals from diverse social and cultural backgrounds. I am fluent in English, French, Wolof, and Soninke, which enables me to effectively engage with a wide range of clients. I find it incredibly rewarding to assist clients in overcoming barriers to their personal growth and to celebrate their progress throughout their therapeutic journeys.

SERVICES
I offer private pay options and provide sliding scale fees based on individual incomes. I am also in-network with Aetna. For clients using out-of-network benefits, I can provide a Superbill for reimbursement.
Please feel free to reach out with any questions. We are happy to work with you to make therapy affordable.
