About

Kindology is a social impact brand and community dedicated to making men-tal health accessible to everyone through private consultations, group sessions for businesses and individuals, products and events.

Kindology aims to harness the potential of organizations to help society while solving their own problem.
It's all done through a Robin Hood-inspired model of social responsibility, where companies subscribe to Kindology's employee assistance program and mental health services, knowing that a portion of the amount invested will go to support people who cannot afford mental health therapy.
