MHA's Wellness Groups
MHA offers wellness groups virtually and in-person for those experiencing depression, anxiety, a loss of a loved one to suicide, trauma and/or substance use disorder. As well, we offer wellness groups for those in specific communities, such as the BIPOC community, LGBTQ+ community and disability community.
Please contact Jaycee Wendell at jwendell@mhainde.org to get more information and register.
Registration is required! Please give a 24-hour notice to register before attending by contacting Jaycee Wendell at jwendell@mhainde.org
The wellness groups run on Eastern Time Zone.
There will be no wellness groups held on the following dates: September 4th, November 10th, November 23rd & 24th and December 22nd & 25th, 2023
To ensure safety and protect the privacy of our members, MHA does not publish the locations of in-person wellness groups. Location info will be provided when you register. All groups are closed. Groups are only open to people who are registered and identify with the diagnosis (i.e. depression, anxiety) or the specific identity (e.g. LGBTQ+, People of Color). Student observers are not allowed.
Disclaimer: Wellness groups sponsored by MHA are not intended to replace professional mental health treatment.
Disclaimer: Due to the contagious nature of COVID-19 and other illnesses, participating in the Mental Health Association in Delaware’s in-person wellness groups is done at your own risk. We strongly advise people to follow health guidelines, stay home if they are experiencing symptoms of COVID-19 or related illnesses, and practice preventive measures. However, we do not screen for COVID-19 and we cannot guarantee that participants will not become infected with COVID-19 in the case of a COVID-19 exposure.
