What does it take to create a mental health practice that is truly inclusive, intentional, and sustainable for both clients and clinicians? Beyond credentials and good intentions, what foundations must be in place to support real healing and care?

According to Liz Frost, a licensed therapist with over a decade of experience, it starts by centering humanity and rejecting one-size-fits-all care. She highlights the importance of designing therapy spaces where both clients and providers feel genuinely seen, safe, and supported. The impact is deeper trust, stronger therapeutic relationships, and long-term sustainability for clinicians. Drawing from personal and professional transformation, Liz explains how depth-oriented, trauma-informed care meets people where they are — especially those with complex trauma or marginalized identities — and how leadership rooted in empathy can shift the culture of mental healthcare.
