A note from us
You have probably spotted the family resemblance by now — yes, we’re three siblings, like a real-life startup version of "siblings assemble". As the children of a Lebanese migrant family in Brazil, we have always been surrounded by diverse cultures and experiences. We’ve each migrated ourselves, and through these journeys, we’ve seen firsthand the various ways that mental health is approached across different cultures. These experiences have shaped our sensitivity to cultural differences and fueled our desire to make mental health care inclusive and accessible for everyone.
​
At Bossa Health, we work with individuals from a variety of backgrounds who speak different languages, allowing us to offer support that respects and acknowledges each person’s unique cultural context. Our team is strong because of this diversity—in thought, culture, and expertise—and we stand by it as a core value. By fostering an inclusive environment, we aim to provide mental health care that truly meets the needs of every individual we serve.
​
Thank you for letting us be a part of your journey!
Yasmin, Karim & Halef
