Negative effects of unemployment: Depression, anxiety, substance abuse and low self-esteem, etc... Psicología Solidaria aims to help these people.
The negative effects of unemployment are well-documented. Depression, anxiety, substance abuse and low self-esteem are just some of the consequences of being out of work, especially over a long period of time. The initiative Psicología Solidaria aims to help people combat those feelings. The free counselling service put together by psychologists, community workers and social workers was born in 2013 to offer support to Madrid’s unemployed.
