Our Story: A New Chapter in Community Care

Welcome to the 2 Hands 2 Help blog — we’re so glad you’re here.

Whether you’ve just stumbled across our work or you’ve connected with us through a training, a session, social post, or you “know us in real life” this space is for you. We're building it with intention — to reflect, to share, to stay connected with the community we care for and are shaped by.

2 Hands 2 Help was created with a simple but powerful mission: to make mental health and healing practices more accessible, affirming, and rooted in real-life community experiences.

We’ve been doing that quietly, behind the scenes, through direct services, partnerships with schools and community-based organizations, curriculum development, and culturally responsive care. Now, we’re stepping into a new season — one where sharing the how, the why, and the heart behind our work matters more than ever.

Why a Blog?

We wanted to create a space that lets us speak beyond the therapy room or the training session. A space where we can share what we’re learning, what we’re holding, and what we’re witnessing as clinicians, educators, and helpers.

This blog will be a mix of things:

• Personal reflections

• Real-time insights

• Current events that affect the communities we serve

• Tools, frameworks, and practices we’ve found meaningful

The Practice Behind the Blog

For us, building a practice rooted in community care means recognizing that healing doesn’t happen in isolation. It also doesn’t stop at one-on-one therapy.

Community care is curriculum, conversation, food, storytelling, systems change, and small consistent check-ins.

This blog is our way of extending care in a new direction — one that’s accessible to more folks, and responsive to the times we’re living in.

We’re excited for what’s to come!
