Minaa B. Social Worker, Mental Health Educator, Author, Founder
Minaa B., MSW, LMSW, is a mental health educator who focuses on the intersection of growth, culture, and community. She is a licensed social worker, author of Owning Our Struggles, and the founder of I’m So Mature, a media company bridging pop culture, music, and personal healing. Minaa holds a graduate degree in social work from New York University and has worked across various mental health sectors, including Early Head Start, private practice, and community mental health. She later pivoted to corporate wellness, helping organizations foster psychological safety and providing consulting for brands and media outlets looking to educate their audiences on mental health topics.
A wellness multi-hyphenate, Minaa is also a wellness coach who helps individuals create sustainable mental health practices that improve well-being, build healthy relationships, and develop self-efficacy. Her work is rooted in the belief that culture profoundly shapes our mental health and that community care is the backbone of a thriving society. She is a curator of experiences that leave people feeling empowered, using art, entertainment, and play as therapeutic tools. Minaa’s goal is to offer a balanced approach to healing—showing that it doesn’t always have to be heavy, and sometimes swapping a self-help book for a rom-com or revisiting a favorite TV show can be just as restorative.
An expert in her field, Minaa has been recognized by numerous media outlets and publications. She has appeared on Red Table Talk, Peace of Mind with Taraji, Today.com, BBC, and more. Her work has been featured in Oprah Daily, Katie Couric Media, SheMedia, The Skimm, CBS News, and other major outlets.
Minaa also serves on the Mental Health Advisory Committee for Wondermind, a mental fitness company co-founded by Selena Gomez, and is a relationship expert for eharmony. She is the host of the podcast Mindful With Minaa and resides in New York City.
