Meet Nikita

Therapy. Advocacy.
Community. Real Change.

I’m Nikita Banks, LCSW, MSW, SAP — a licensed therapist, speaker, and mental health strategist dedicated to helping high-achieving professionals prioritize their wellness. With over a decade of experience, I blend clinical insight with cultural relevance to create space for healing and growth. Whether in the therapy room or on stage, I’m here to empower change—one conversation at a time.

As the founder of a culturally responsive practice, I specialize in supporting professionals of color—particularly women navigating high-pressure environments where identity, success, and mental health often collide. I also consult with organizations to deliver trainings that bridge the gap between wellness and workplace equity.

Speaking & Organizations

Partnering with Purpose

As a certified minority- and women-owned business, we partner with organizations committed to equity, access, and real impact. Our culturally responsive mental health services, employee workshops, and executive coaching are designed to address the unique needs of diverse teams—especially professionals of color navigating workplace stress and racial trauma.

We don’t just check boxes—we help build healthier, more inclusive workplace cultures that prioritize well-being from the inside out.
