What Is Expressions: Expressing oneself (Everyday Problems Support Group) About?
A Support Circle on ‘Expressions: Expressing Oneself’ is a safe and supportive space for individuals to explore and express their thoughts and emotions through various forms of creative expression. Participants are encouraged to share their work and engage in meaningful conversations with others in the group, fostering a sense of community and connection. The circle is facilitated by a trained professional who provides guidance and support to ensure that everyone feels heard and respected. Through this process, participants can gain a deeper understanding of themselves and others, and develop new skills for expressing themselves in healthy and meaningful ways.
What is your founding story?
Two organizations, a mental health organization (EmptyCare) and a poverty alleviation organization (Saday Sadev) came together to address the growing need for support and empowerment for those struggling with mental health issues and poverty.
The leaders and thinkers of both organizations recognized that these two issues were often intertwined, with individuals facing mental health challenges often experiencing poverty and vice versa. They realized that a more holistic approach was needed to address these challenges and support those in need.
The support circle provided a safe and supportive environment for participants to share their stories and connect with others who were facing similar challenges. It also provided access to mental health professionals who offered guidance and support.
Who are the facilitators behind Expressions: Expressing oneself (Everyday Problems Support Group)?
Sadhana Singh (she/her), a queer affirmative, trauma-informed counselling psychologist/psychotherapist. She has assisted individuals who were dealing with low self-esteem, gender prejudice, and adjustments concerns. She is a skilled facilitator of group discussions of individuals who get together to navigate complexity and share knowledge to advance what matters most. By maintaining the neutrality to honouring the wisdom of the circle and being future focused, she holds onto the agenda of the circle. During her practice, she came across many individuals who were unable to find a safe space with likeminded individuals to hold conversations or simply vent. Therefore, she is focused to make this support circle a safe space for individuals to talk and share their concerns. Notes: The above information may change from time to time, and is shared with you to understand the background of where the support group comes from.
When was your support group founded? How has the journey been since then?
The collaborative process of Saday and EmptyCare is fairly new. However, we are looking into a bright future together as collaborators for these support circles.
Who is your support group for?
For individuals who are looking for an offline support group in Delhi, to explore and express their thoughts and emotions through various forms of creative expression.
Explain your group's approach towards helping a person's mental health care.
We have mental health professionals who are trained to provide counselling, treatment, and rehabilitation. As the facilitators are a qualified Counselling Psychologists, they can offer professional help to any participant. If the concern falls out of the purview of the current facilitators, they can refer the participant to another mental health professional from EmptyCare platform who could be more suitable for them.
EmptyCare has a growing network of psychologists, counsellors, social workers, life coaches, marriage counsellors, etc. Our therapists will offer a safe space to the participant allowing them to speak their truth, counsel and help them reflect. We have Therapists of varied experience, diversity, and specialisation.
EmptyCare is not equipped to handle emergency situations. However, we have reliable references to provide.
What is your group's approach towards professional mental health care interventions?
One common approach is to have a list of trusted professionals that group members can be referred to in case they need professional help. This list may include therapists, psychologists, psychiatrists, or other mental health professionals who are qualified to provide individualized treatment.
In addition, we have trained primary responders or facilitators who are equipped to handle mental health crises or emergencies that may arise during group sessions. These individuals may have specialized training in crisis intervention or suicide prevention, and they may work closely with mental health professionals to ensure that group members receive the appropriate care and support.
Overall, the goal of support groups is to provide a safe and supportive environment for individuals to share their experiences and receive peer support, while also connecting them with professional mental health resources when needed.
What conversations is your support group not equipped to support?
Expressions: Expressing oneself supports all and every kind of conversation, however, if the facilitator senses a deeper need of intervention they would intervene and attempt to diffuse the situation as psychological first aid if the nature of the situation is at high risk level EmptyCare is not equipped to handle emergency situations. However, we have reliable references to provide.

Walk us through the average format of your group session.
Expressions: Expressing oneself initiates with introductions and check ins, followed by conversations through activity or prompts and concluding with the learnings and resources. The support circle initiates with an interactive check in, fruitful and insightful conversations with the entire group and giving a platform to share their experiences. Another reflective activity is optional depending on the theme of the circle. Finally, the circle concludes with key take aways, body scan mediation and check outs.\r

Our curation process

Find someone who understands you, in just a few clicks.

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.

1. Therapists / Support Groups Contact Us

We receive applications from therapists and support groups who want to join our community.

Therapists and support groups apply to join our community. We review basic qualifications - only suitable candidates move forward.

2. Peer Referral Confirmation

Feedback from within our community.

We reach out to trusted professionals within our community about the applicant. If we don't get confident feedback, we stop here.

3. Personal Interview

Our personal interview with the applicant.

We have a conversation to understand their values and approach to inclusive care. Those who don't align with our standards don't continue.

4. Curation Questionnaire

Our detailed assessment of the applicant.

Applicants answer detailed questions about working with diverse communities within our network. Inadequate responses, or a lack of experience with diverse communities, ends the process.

5. Final Decision

(Approx 1 - 2 Months In Total)

We review everything carefully within our community standards. Only providers who pass all stages join 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.

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 👥, create digital exercises 📱, 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!
