Healing Maryland, One Story at a Time.
The Maryland Health Foundation was founded with a powerful purpose: to bring healing, hope, and mental health support to communities in need. At the heart of our mission is Mustafa Abdulrahman, a former Baltimore City Police Officer who saw firsthand the deep emotional wounds carried by individuals, families, and neighborhoods affected by trauma, violence, and most importantly, systemic inequality.
During his years in law enforcement, Mustafa witnessed the limitations of traditional emergency response. He saw how citations and arrests couldn’t mend broken spirits or rebuild fractured communities. What he realized was simple but powerful: people weren’t just in crisis—they were hurting. And what they needed most wasn’t punishment, but support. Compassion. A safe space to be heard and understood.
That realization sparked a transformation.
Mustafa stepped away from the badge and built something new: The Maryland Health Foundation, an Outpatient Mental Health Clinic dedicated to providing accessible, trauma-informed mental health services across Maryland. Our goal is to break cycles of pain and empower people to rediscover their strength, resilience, and voice.
Culturally Competent Therapy: We offer mental health counseling tailored to the unique experiences of Maryland’s diverse communities.
Community Support Programs: From group therapy to outreach events, we foster safe spaces for healing and connection.
Crisis Recovery & Trauma Care: Our services are designed to support individuals navigating grief, PTSD, emotional distress, etc.
Mental health is not a luxury—it’s a necessity. In underserved communities, access to quality care is often limited. We’re here to change that. Whether you're seeking therapy, support, or simply a place to be heard, Maryland Health Foundation is here to walk with you every step of the way.
