Support Group
Esther Ha Foundation believes peer support is a unique and essential element of recovery-oriented mental health. It also provides support to help people who are experiencing mental health challenges, lacking social and communication skills, and enhance hope and social networking through role modeling and activation.
Peer supporters are people who use their experience of recovery from mental health disorders to support others in recovery.

Volunteer Sungmin Lee said:
“Anger management support group that I have participated since last Jan. will end in Dec. 2018. The support group is designed to help Korean immigrants learn to control their temper and find healthy ways to express their feelings, as well as improve their communication skills organized by Esther Ha Foundation. It is held every fourth Saturday of the month at Englewood Hospital and facilitated by Dr. Eunja Talbot, Neuropsychologist.
I believed that all participants learned how to identify what gets me angry and how to counter these triggers as well as how my brain processes with emotions. It provided a supportive and educational environment for me to control my anger. This session helped me a lot to recognize myself and live the life I want it to be.”
