Seeking counselling is an act of self-care. It’s okay to not know what to expect, or feel awkward, confused, and scared about seeking therapy. Reach out to a mental health professional and ask your questions. When going to a counsellor or therapist for the first time, it is alright to ask them about their qualifications and their attitudes towards receiving supervision and therapy for themselves (yes, therapists need to be in therapy too to ensure their own issues are not spilling over the client’s sessions!). If you find them evading your questions or not giving satisfactory answers, it is alright to seek another therapist. Also, not every therapist will be the right fit for you - and that’s okay. However, if you find yourself changing therapists frequently, sometimes, it helps to explore what’s really not working for you, and what is it that you are really seeking.
Questions around the therapists’ experience, the fee they offer, are also valid. Curiosity is always welcome!

We've developed a curation process over 7+ years, which allows us to carefully curate each inclusive and affirming mental health provider listed on our platform.
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!
