The Holding Space Foundation
The Holding Space Foundation was established in 2021 by Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, founder of Therapy for Black Girls, as a response to the growing need for mental health services for Black women and girls as a response to the pandemic and continued instances of race-based violence, sexism, and misogynoir. Seeing the need for more comprehensive and culturally-responsive services, the Holding Space Foundation was developed to provide group healing spaces for Black women and girls, training for mental health professionals, and community education with a focus on prevention. Our hope is that through these initiatives, Black women and girls have the space, knowledge, and resources to tend to their mental health.
