Why we do what we do
The numbers on mental wellbeing and illness are harrowing.
The best time to act on this was decades ago. The second best time is now.

Major issues facing mental healthcare
Issue of prevention
Currently, most research initiatives are focused on treatment of mental illnesses, while the power of preventing mental illness is overlooked.
Issue of stigma
Although progress has happened, mental illnesses are still stigmatized by the public as well as healthcare practitioners. This stigma can prevent proper treatment and discourage the affected from seeking help.
Issue of education
While self-education on mental wellbeing and illness is on the rise, much of it lacks scientific credibility. Advice on how to address a mental challenge can vary from supplements, to diets, to therapy styles and drug brands unintentionally leading people into rabbitholes.
Mental health in schools and companies
Schools and companies are particularly potent places for preventing and combatting mental illness.
Why?
Because they are trusted organizations that enable seamless implementation of psychoeducation.
Moreover, schools and companies can leverage the sense of community embedded in their existing culture.

Why we exist
Mind Blossom is spearheaded by our CEO and Neuroscientist, Dr. Pernille Bülow, PhD, who, having faced severe mental illnesses, draws from personal experience. Her encounters with stigma, limited family support, and inadequate access to treatment motivated the inception of Mind Blossom.
While Dr. Bülow’s journey embodies pain and hardship, it is equally a narrative of hope, resilience, and the fortifying strength of community. Beyond her expertise, Dr. Bülow brings a genuine passion to impact everyone she encounters.
Profits, Donations & Reports

All profits from services and all donations are reinvested into developing mental health education programming for financially insecure schools and community centers.
Decide where your donations go
Mind Blossom is dedicated to make an impact in your local area. When you donate 1000$ or more, we will reinvest our profits in your local area (state or region).

Know where your money went
We release quarterly newsletter that state where we have worked either as a service or pro bono activity. In this newsletter we also state how much money we received in donations and exactly how we have spent them.
Anything that’s human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary.
