The Mental Health Collective (MHC) was established in 1999 to provide affordable, respectful and meaningful mental health services to clients who, for a variety of reasons, may not have access to services.
We work with general mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, life transitions, grief and loss, self-care, self-esteem and stress management.
In addition to working with general mental health issues, we also help clients with issues around anger, addictions and impulse control; work conflicts; career planning; parenting and healthy development; relationships; conflict resolution; sexuality and sexual orientation; identity; and spiritual connection. Looking to Volunteer Some Time? The Mental Health Collective is looking to expand our Board of Directors. Might you be interested? The time commitment is four hours per month and meets at our office in South Minneapolis. Read more here...
