	Resumen:When planning mental health interventions, it is an important occupational therapy objective to facilitate the participant's autonomy, and to re-enforce the fact that he or she is a person with rights, including the right to continue with a life in the community in spite of the illness, and to establish satisfactory relationships. The use of animals as a therapeutic tool in a mental health facility helps to humanize the space, thus escaping from the rigidity which generally characterizes mental health institutions. This is one way to establish the service user in a role and space which is at a great distance from illness and nearer to possibilities of recovery.
