Our Story
Mental Health Mingle began as a spark. An idea born from years of sitting in therapy offices, feeling the weight of client stories, business stress, and the quiet burnout no one talked about. I created MHM to be the kind of community I wished existed when I was starting out as a new therapist: supportive, resource-rich, and full of people who actually get it.
What started as a solo project soon became something bigger. Jason, with his background in systems, operations, and coaching, stepped in—not just behind the scenes, but alongside me—to help MHM grow into a thriving, therapist-centered hub. Together, we’ve built a space where mental health professionals can connect, grow, and breathe a little easier.
Whether you’re just starting out or scaling your practice, we’re here to support the humans behind the healing because we know what it’s like to do this work and feel like you’re doing it alone. You don’t have to anymore.
