At Anesis Foundation for Mental Health, we are on a mission to transform the landscape of mental health care, making it accessible, inclusive, and transformative for all community members. As the non-profit arm of Anesis Therapy, we are committed to creating a world where every individual has the opportunity to thrive, regardless of their background or financial situation.

About

The Anesis Foundation transforms mental wellness by bringing communities together in collective healing spaces. We transcend traditional healthcare boundaries by offering innovative mental health services not confined by insurance limitations. Through community gatherings, specialized training programs, and comprehensive psycho education, we create pathways for accessible, quality mental health support that strengthens the fabric of our community.

The Anesis Foundation supports initiatives of Anesis Therapy. This includes supporting interns, Anesis Therapy free drop-in clinics, and additional therapy services for those without insurance.

Empowering Change

At the heart of our foundation's work is the belief in the power of people and communities. We empower and support BIPOC clinicians and advanced clinical interns, nurturing a new generation of compassionate and culturally competent mental health professionals. We are leveling the playing field, ensuring that voices from diverse backgrounds are heard and valued in the mental health field.

Dissolving Divides

Financial concerns should never be a hindrance to getting the help you need. We provide a safety net for clients without insurance and for those living within poverty guidelines. By offering financial aid and supplemental support, we're removing the obstacles that have prevented many from seeking mental health care.

Building Stronger Communities

Community is at the core of healing. Our free mental health programming, including drop-in mental health clinics, community grief and healing sessions, and groups for children and families, brings people together in an environment of acceptance and understanding. We're creating spaces where individuals and families can find solace, regain hope, and heal together.

Join Us

We invite you to join our effort. Whether you're seeking support, pursuing professional growth, or simply interested in our community programs, Anesis Foundation for Mental Health is your partner on the journey to better mental health and emotional well-being.

Together, We are collaboratively removing obstacles in mental health care and helping build communities where everyone has the opportunity to excel.


If you have any questions, ideas for collaboration, in need of assistance, or if you'd like to make a contribution to support our mission, don't hesitate to reach out. We're here for you, and we're here to create a world where mental health care is a right, not a privilege.
