Is Healing Circle a formal psychological entity or an informal one?
No, Healing Circle is best described as an informal community-based organization focused on mental health care and wellness, rather than a formal psychological entity. We are not a licensed mental health clinic or medical facility. Our activities and support services are complementary to, not a replacement for, professional mental health care. Our founders and team members, while passionate and knowledgeable about mental health, are not necessarily licensed psychologists or therapists. We focus on peer support, community building, and holistic wellness activities rather than providing clinical psychological services. Our approach is more informal and youth-oriented, emphasizing accessible, engaging activities that promote mental well-being. While we collaborate with licensed professionals and organizations for certain workshops and events, we don't offer formal psychological treatment ourselves. Our goal is to create a supportive community and provide tools for mental wellness, not to diagnose or treat mental health conditions.
If you're seeking formal psychological services, we recommend consulting with licensed mental health professionals. Healing Circle can be a great complementary resource for community support and wellness activities alongside professional care.
