MindBlossom was first founded by Dr. Pernille Yilmam, PhD, whose personal experiences with mental illness, as well as her occupation as a neuroscientist, provided her unique insight to the field. Her encounters with stigma, limited family support, and inadequate access to treatment motivated the inception of Mind Blossom.

While Dr. Yilmam’s journey embodies pain and hardship, it is equally a narrative of hope, resilience, and the fortifying strength of community. Beyond her expertise, Dr. Yilmam brings a genuine passion that impacts everyone she encounters.
