  • What Is Bride Woes (Support Group For Brides-to-be) About?

    Marriage is a huge step for any of us, and in the Indian cultural context, especially for women.

    Marriage for Indian women comes with a tidal wave of life changes, new roles and responsibilities, and most of all, so many expectations.

    Managing our own emotions while trying to meet these expectations and navigate the demands of everyone around us can be overwhelming, to say the least.

    Bride Woes is a supportive space for brides to be, where they can come and share their pre wedding experiences, fears and anxieties about their life after marriage or simply just vent out their frustrations.

  • What is your founding story?

    I am a bride to be myself, and have been having all these novel experiences and emotions surrounding marriage, my fiance, my in-laws and even seeing a whole new side to my own family.

    Not having many female friends who have been through or are going through similar experiences left me feeling lost, without a space to share and be understood.

    This is why I wanted to create a space where women in this chapter of their life can come and bear the hearts out.

  • Who are the facilitators behind Bride Woes (Support Group For Brides-to-be)?
    We could not find this answer, perhaps because this was added to our curation after their profile was curated and listed. We urge you reach out to this group to know more.
  • When was your support group founded? How has the journey been since then?

    This is a brand new group, I hope that I can contribute and create a supportive environment for my participants.

    I’ve been thinking about creating this group for a while and finally have taken a step towards it. So far, it has been only me and one close friend on the marriage journey who have been each others sounding board. I am excited to meet more women and learn about their diverse experiences.

  • Who is your support group for?
    Cis-het women who are in the 12 months leading upto their marriage. The group is specifically a space for Indian women to come and share their pre marriage experiences.
  • Explain your group's approach towards helping a person's mental health care.

    My approach in this group is to encourage reflective listening and facilitate the sharing of different perspectives without offering any direct advice.

    We will also discuss strategies for anxiety and stress management through the lens of CBT and existential psychology.

  • What is your group's approach towards professional mental health care interventions?

    I have a list of trusted therapists I can refer my participants to if I observe anyone having the need for further support.

    Since the group agenda is not related to overall mental health, there won’t be any interventions I would offer during the group meeting itself, but I will be observing participants and would be available to provide further support outside of the group meeting if and when required.

  • What conversations is your support group not equipped to support?

    We will want to keep the conversation about wedding related stress/feelings but as a trained mental health professional I am equipped to handle conversations about more intense/serious topics as mentioned above.

    If any participant raises a concern related to the above mentioned topics, I will gently guide the conversation back, but I will surely address the individuals concerns outside of the group, by providing them the required references.

  • How does one sign up? What’s the coordination process like?
    Interested individuals can fill in my registration form post which I will add them to the Whatsapp group, where we would share the meeting links and agenda. Reach Out
  • Walk us through the average format of your group session.
    For every session it will be topic based, or if there is a participant going through a particularly stressful period we would allow them to have the floor for the first part of the session.
  • What are your home rules/values?
    1. Use respectful language even when talking about your personal issues
    2. Refer to fellow participants respectfully using their preferred names
    3. Don’t interrupt/speak over fellow participants while they are sharing
    4. Do not offer any direct advice or opinion to a fellow participant.
  • What do you hope for participants in your group to take back with them after a session?
    After a session, I hope that participants will leave with a feeling of being heard, seen and understood, and realise that they are not alone in their struggles.

Finding Support On TheMindClan.com

How It Works

1. Find Support

Browse our curated list of mental health professionals, support groups, and resources that resonate with you.

2. Learn More

Read detailed profiles, specialties, and approaches to understand if they're the right fit for you.

3. Connect Directly

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.

Inspired By Our Own Struggles.

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.

For Everyone

Whether you're coping with anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship issues, grief, or any other mental health concern, we're here to help you find the right support.

Inclusive by Design

If you are queer, neurodivergent, or are from a marginalized community, your experiences are at the heart of what we do.

Handpicked with Care

Support providers are handpicked after personal interviews and a rigorous curation process.

For context: From 442 therapist who wanted to join our platform (Oct 2020–Mar 2025), only 168 made it through our curation process.

Not Just Therapy

We also curate support groups πŸ‘₯, create digital exercises πŸ“±, and work on corporate partnerships 🏒 that help make mental health a priority in more spaces.

No Middlemen. Take Things Ahead Directly

We provide you with direct contact details of support providers, empowering you to reach out, ask questions, and schedule sessions

Access Their Story

Get to know your potential therapist or support group's background & journey, helping you find someone who feels right for you.

No Hidden Fee

To keep their services affordable, every payment happens directly between you and the support provider. We do not take any commissions, which means support providers don't need to inflate their fees to account for middleman costs.

Confidential

Your conversations with support groups, therapists, and others remain completely private. We never ask them for any information about the concerns you have shared with them.

Your Relationship, No Interference From Us

If the therapist or support group you choose is not a good fit, you can use our platform to find someone else you feel more comfortable with. We're not here to interfere with your relationship with your support provider.

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!
