GAM: Mutual Help Groups

«I found a space where I could be myself, where I could express myself without fear of being judged and people empathized with me, something that did not happen in my daily environment», tells us Jaume, user of a Mutual Help Group of Associació EMILIA BCN.

In a GAM, anyone who is experiencing mental health problems can express themselves among equals. The sessions are energized by people with first-person experience, without the intervention of professionals.

Associació EMILIA BCN offers these spaces for mutual support in Barcelona, effectives in responding to the mental health challenge that has intensified so much as a result of the pandemic.
