Being LGBTQ+ affirmative in my practice means your identities, pronouns, relationships, and ways of being are respected, never questioned or pathologised. I welcome exploration of gender, sexuality, queerness, and how these intersect with culture, family, and trauma.
I prioritise ongoing learning by engaging with voices from queer communities, reflecting on my own biases and privileges, and seeking supervision that keeps me accountable. I see this not as a box to tick, but as a continual practice of listening, unlearning, and staying open to feedback, including yours.
My hope is to offer a space where you donāt have to explain why your identity matters, and where your full self feels seen, safe, and supported.

Browse our curated list of mental health professionals, support groups, and resources that resonate with you.
Read detailed profiles, specialties, and approaches to understand if they're the right fit for you.
We'll help you reach out and then step aside - your mental health journey is personal.
While we carefully curate our listings, we encourage you to make your own informed decisions. Take time to research, ask questions, verify credentials and choose what feels right for you. Your comfort and safety is top priority.
We take an immense amount of care in selecting the most inclusive and affirming mental health support providers to join our platform and be part of our growing community.
It took us 7+ years to get here
We have come a long way since we started in 2018, and have been adapting our curation process every day. From the time a therapist or support group reaches out to us, it takes about 1 - 2 months to complete the process.
We launched TheMindClan.com because we know firsthand how challenging it can be to find support for ourselves and our loved ones. We know that experiences of neurodivergence (like dyslexia, ADHD, autism, etc), or being from a marginalized community (LGBTQIA+, etc), can make it especially challenging to find support.
We understand the overwhelming feeling of scrolling through endless lists, wondering whom to trust, and not knowing what to expect.
If you appreciate our mission of making mental health care accessible and inclusive, and would love to bring this to your organization or collaborate with us, we'd be delighted to hear from you!
