Abstract

Supportive psychotherapy is one of the most widely used psychotherapies. The need for therapists for mental health treatment, especially anxiety and depression, is increasing all over the world. However, therapists are insufficient in terms of quantity and quality in societies with low socioeconomic and sociocultural levels. At this point, I am reporting an extraordinary social observation that a group of people in a city with a low sociocultural level unknowingly establish a secret "therapist-client" relationship with each other to find solutions to their mental health problems.
