re:MIND provides many types of support groups.
The following support groups are specific to a certain need we have seen in the community. Most groups are 1.5 hours, free and confidential. We hope you are able to find a group that meets your specific needs as they relate to depression or bipolar disorder. All groups are led by a trained facilitator that is professionally supervised.

Military/Veterans
Understanding the difficulties of serving one’s country prompted us to offer groups to this growing population. We welcome all veterans to attend any of our support groups. re:MIND now offers a Veterans focused online support group, register here.
Family and Friends
Caring for a loved one, such as a spouse, parent, friend, or child with a mental disorder can be emotionally exhausting and mentally challenging. Studies have shown that caregivers, when compared to the general population, suffer twice the rate of depression. All of our general support groups are open to family members and friends, 18 years of age and older. In addition to our general groups, we have specialized Family and Friends focused groups.
These groups include:
- Online Support Group - Family and Friends
Spanish Speaking (online)
In 2006, we opened our first Spanish speaking group. While that group has since closed, the number of Spanish speaking individuals in Houston continues to grow and we now offer an Online Spanish Speaking group.
LGBTQIA+ Community
In 2012, we responded to a need for groups in the LGBT community around Houston. We have heard that many individuals feel more comfortable in a safe environment with individuals who are accepting of all sexual orientation and gender variation.
These groups include:
- LGBTQIA+ Evening (in person)
- Online Support Group - LGBTQIA+ Daytime
- Online Support Group - LGBTQIA+ Evening
Young Adults
In addition to our general groups, we offer specialized groups for individuals 18 through 30 years of age. Participants have stated that it can be helpful to recieve support from peers who better understand due to similar age and current life experiences.
These groups include:
- Online Support Group - Young Adult (ages 18-30)
The following support group types are for specific individuals currently being served by designated organizations. These groups are not open to the general public.
Transitional Housing
We offer support groups in facilities that provide services to individuals experiencing transitional living. These groups are closed to the general public and are only available to individuals receiving services from these organizations. We have had success in reaching this population through residential programs and transitional living environments. These organizations include The Women’s Home, and Covenant House.
The Gathering Place
We provide a group to the individuals receiving services from The Gathering Place. These individuals are receiving psychosocial rehabilitation services from The Gathering Place. You must be a member to receive services.
