BIGA CARE FORUM

The most common way one copes with any ongoing medical or therapeutical treatment is to join a support group.Usually led by professional therapist (such as social workers, psychologist, nurse or psychiatrist) who has had some training in facilitating group discussion. From our focus groups people with condition and their families want  more than a professional opinion, they want to  engage with others that understand the emotional, mental and social challenges one faces.They want the ability to discuss their thoughts,  experiences, ideas and feelings without being judged.Unlike formal one-on-one sessions or support groups were people often find it hard to open up in front of a professional therapist. BIGA Care forum is a confidential service that is led by everyday people with real life experiences.
