The production of care in the field of mental health flourishes from the encounter between professionals and users. The study aims to analyze mental health care in the psychosocial care network from the practice of welcoming. Qualitative study based on the search for confrontations and complementarities present in the subjects' reports. The research was carried out in two Primary Health Care Units and two Psychosocial Care Centers. Mental health services, already punished by underfunding and dismantling for years, have not been able to meet the growing demands for psychiatric care. Thinking about citizenship involves complex changes in care-producing institutions in parallel with changes in social relationships as well, opening up important possibilities for deconstructing the stigma created around mental health users. Welcoming as the initial moment of meeting between the service is the one that seeks care represents a moment of agreement and definition of flows, putting into question the service's capacity to dispose of its resources. The excess of demands and the way in which it has been accepted has impacted on the capacity for reflection and reorganization of work processes, leading to a continuous procedure for reproducing the context.
