The Community Mental Health Group (CMHG), developed since 1997, proposes an attention to the human person through the sharing of daily experiences, being an innovative program within the mental health and group practices field. This qualitative study, based on the classical phenomenological approach, aims to comprehend the coordinator's interventions in this group, considering concepts from the phenomenological perspective. Six group sessions were analysed, aiming to identify this group handling essential characteristics, which were further understood in dialogue with the phenomenological perspective. Within the CMHG, the coordinator undertakes the group work to the lived experience ground, besides receiving the reports of the daily experiences and contributing to its elaboration, sustained by the empathic lived experience. It was possible to identify the approximations between the coordination practice within this group and some phenomenological theoretic-methodological gestures, as the phenomenological reductions, contributing to the theoretic-philosophical foundation of this and other group's handling.
