Family Support

NAMI Westside LA Family support groups are free for family members, significant others, and friends of people living with mental health conditions. By sharing your experiences in a safe and confidential setting, you can connect with others experiencing similar challenges, gain hope, and develop supportive relationships. This group allows your voice to be heard and provides an opportunity for your personal needs to be met. It encourages empathy, productive discussion and a sense of community.

You’ll benefit from other’s experiences, discover your inner strength and empower yourself by sharing your own experiences in a non-judgmental space. Our family support groups will help you aim for better coping skills; find strength in sharing experiences; not judge anyone’s pain; forgive yourself and reject guilt; embrace humor as healthy; accept that you cannot solve every problem; understand that mental health conditions are no one’s fault and can be traumatic experiences.
