Words from our founder...
"I promised to do everything I could to change the mental health system for the queer community in the south. And that's why, I founded
The Mind Parlor."
"I grew up in a small town in east Texas, so I know what it's like to be in an environment heavily saturated with homophobia, transphobia, toxic masculinity, and racism. I hated it." In graduate school I experienced first-hand the lack of competence & access to training for therapists in this niche and I said to myself... 'This is a big problem.' The very people who are supposed to be helping are causing more harm, even unintentionally due to lack of training. The system in Texas is failing the LGBTQ community and the stigma is only continuing to grow in the current political climate. So I made a promise to do everything I could to change that system. Starting with proper training for therapists in Texas and in the larger US."
