THE RARE THERAPIST PROGRAM

The Rare Therapist program is a Mental Health for Rare initiative that seeks to train mental health professionals specializing in rare diseases. This program develops disease-specific continuing education courses for mental health professionals in partnership with advocacy organizations, activists, and institutions. This collaborative program provides a blueprint to establish research-backed curriculums that guide mental health professionals to be more effective when working with people diagnosed with life-altering rare diseases.

Pompe Disease

Other Rare Diseases

Mental Health for Rare is currently in discussions with a variety of disease-specific organizations to launch more programs soon.
