About Hero Journey Club:

Hero Journey Club (www.herojourney.club) provides community-based mental health support inside of virtual gathering spaces to address loneliness and mental health for young adults (aged 15-35). We host weekly group sessions inside of video games like Minecraft to meet members where they already spend time, facilitated by trained therapists with expertise in evidence-based care.

We are building the social scaffolding to improve the emotional/mental health of every community. We are creating the infrastructure for modern communities to improve mental wellbeing through connection and belonging; the next generation of mental health tools, for the next generation. You can read more in our manifesto.

Our mission is our impact: Make mental health more accessible and more personalized, anchoring on community support rather than individual brokenness.

Come craft the future of mental health & wellbeing with us and literally save lives — trailblazers, empaths, and pioneers wanted.
