ARAUJO, Michell Ângelo Marques et al. The Community Therapy: creating networks solidarity in a Family Health Center. Revista Portuguesa de Enfermagem de Saúde Mental [online]. 2018, n.19, pp.71-76. ISSN 1647-2160. https://doi.org/10.19131/rpesm.0204.
Community therapy is a nursing strategy in primary health care, it welcomes the demand of the service, directs the most serious cases and enables community integration. The objective of this article is to tell the experience of Community Therapy as strategy of mental health promotion in a Family Health Center of Fortaleza-Ceará-Brazil. When accomplishing therapy we don't work only symptoms, but especially feelings, desires and people's needs, they are invited to go deep in their cultural, religious and community bases, learning how to share with others their pain and history of life, they build their own ways from themselves and are able to transform their suffering in personal growth. We noticed that Community Therapy is an effective strategy of first community listening and we clearly see its importance as a viable work that takes care not only of sick people but especially promotes mental health.
