I am a proud co-founder of Bridges Mental Health, an organization in the greater New York City area dedicated to providing stigma-free mental health support for Asians, Pacific Islanders, and South Asian Americans (APISA) communities.

The Bridges team, comprised of three asian-identified therapists, are passionate about creating a safe and affirming space for individuals within the APISA community to discuss, navigate, and access quality mental health care.

We recognized a significant need within our community for culturally responsive mental health services. Many APISA individuals have shared their challenges in finding therapists who understand their unique cultural backgrounds and experiences. 

That's why we established Bridges Mental Health—to bridge the gap and provide accessible resources for mental wellness.

Our directory connects individuals with culturally sensitive therapists and psychiatric providers, ensuring that everyone can find the support they need. Additionally, our podcast delves into the diverse experiences of mental health within the APISA community.

Join us at Bridges Mental Health as we foster a supportive environment for affirming healing and community connection. Together, let's break down barriers and promote mental wellness for all.
