Empowering Change

 Through Connection

The Connection Clinic (TCC) was founded in 2018 by Dr. Nicole Taylor, Dr. Cole, as a solo practice. Feeling the sometimes isolating nature of private practice, Dr. Cole sought to cultivate something greater: a community of therapists committed to decolonized, trauma-informed, and culturally affirming care. From a deep passion for mentorship and supervision, the practice naturally grew into a collective of like-minded practitioners.

​

As the team expanded, Dr. Cole brought on a trusted colleague and friend, Erika Liu- Culpin, who shares the same dedication to culturally responsive healing. Together, they provide oversight, guidance, and support to ensure the clinic's growth while staying true to its mission: Expanding global mental health and wellness through high-quality, equitable care for groups that have been historically overlooked and underserved. Today, TCC is a thriving community of practitioners devoted to supporting those impacted by systemic and historical oppressions, who often find misalignments in traditional mental health spaces. We believe healing happens in community ... of both providers and those receiving services. We’re here to provide the safe, inclusive, and empowering care you deserve.
