Abstract
Mutual aid groups can help people cope with life’s problems. A peer supervision group can help facilitators to better under- stand their role and improve their facilitating skills in mutual aid groups. Peer supervision groups aim to support facilitators ability to reflect on their difficulties in working with groups, deepen their methodological questions, and improve their understanding regarding how to best proceed as facilitators. This paper studied a peer supervision group of experts-by- experience facilitators to demonstrate the dynamics of mutual aid that characterized the group’s functioning.
