No.
The services offered through Healing Minds are not therapy and do not include diagnosis, treatment, or mental health intervention.

Our work focuses on sexual wellness education, group coaching, and facilitated learning experiences. These services are educational and reflective in nature, not clinical.

Sex therapy is a clinical service that involves assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of sexual or mental health concerns.

Sexual wellness coaching and education:

• Focus on learning, awareness,  and skill-building
• Do not diagnose or treat conditions
• Do not involve clinical documentation
• Do not replace therapy
• Center choice, consent, and  personal agency

Our groups are designed for growth and education, not clinical care.

No.
You are never required to disclose personal, sexual, or traumatic experiences in any group.

Sharing is always optional. Group participation can include:

• Listening
• Reflection exercises
• Journaling
• Skills practice
• Educational discussion

We prioritize psychological safety and choice at all times 

Our programming is trauma-informed, meaning we prioritize safety, boundaries, pacing, and consent.

However, these groups are not trauma treatment. If you are currently experiencing significant distress, active trauma symptoms, or need individualized clinical support, therapy may be more appropriate before or alongside group participation.

We are happy to help you determine next steps or offer referrals.

No.

Our services do not replace individual therapy or mental health treatment.

Some participants choose to engage in coaching or education alongside therapy, while others participate during periods of stability or personal growth.

No.

We do not diagnose mental health or sexual disorders, provide treatment plans, or conduct clinical assessments within any group or coaching service.

The facilitator has professional training and experience in sex therapy and sexual health education. 

However, these services are intentionally offered outside of a clinical therapy relationship.

This distinction allows for:

• Group-based learning
• Educational flexibility
• Broader accessibility

Clear ethical boundaries 

Strong emotions can arise during reflective or educational work, and that is normal.

Facilitators will:

• Pause or ground the group when appropriate
• Offer optional regulation tools
• Encourage participants to seek individual support if needed

Group sessions will not shift into therapy or crisis intervention.

These offerings may not be appropriate if you:

• Are seeking diagnosis or treatment
• Are in active crisis
• Need individualized trauma processing
• Expect therapy-style disclosure or intervention
• Are uncomfortable with group learning environments

If you’re unsure, we encourage reaching out before enrolling.

While facilitators maintain professional discretion, group settings are not confidential in the same way therapy is.

Participants agree to:

• Respect privacy
• Not share others’ stories outside the group
• Engage ethically and respectfully

Absolute confidentiality cannot be guaranteed in group spaces.

Clinical therapy services, if offered, are separate from coaching, education, and group programs and require a distinct intake process, informed consent, and clinical agreement.

Participation in group programs does not establish a therapy relationship.

If you’re seeking:

• Learning, insight, and community      → Group programs or membership
• Skill-building without diagnosis      → Coaching or workshops
• Clinical assessment or treatment      → Therapy or referral

If you’re unsure, we’re happy to help guide you.
