You may find yourself contemplating before reaching out for support. And I would like to tell you that this is natural for you to feel this way. You may have heard that one size does not fit all and this is applicable even to the therapy space. Allow yourself to explore and connect with therapists who may offer a preliminary call to understand the therapeutic approach they follow. Allow yourself to ask as many questions as you’d wish to feel a sense of clarity. It is important to find a therapist whose value systems and ideologies align with yours. There may be times when you experience a mismatch/gap over the course of the sessions. During such times, take up space and allow yourself to voice these feelings in your therapeutic space and know that you can always discontinue and change your therapist.
In this journey…you are learning to be brave. You are finding that even though it might be challenging to walk this journey, there is still boundless grace that still says that your story matters and your story will go on anyway.
I am not the only one who feels like this, and when I choose to practice courage out in the open, it makes a difference.

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!
