Sexuality and Sexual Orientation
Issues surrounding sexuality and sexual orientation can cause symptoms of anxiety or depression. LGBTQ individuals can experience poor mental health outcomes as the result of prejudice and other biases they struggle against and the accompanying trauma they may experience. If you or someone you love is struggling with issues surrounding their sexuality, please contact the organizations below.
Please note: AMI-Quebec helps families cope with mental health problems and illnesses in a loved one. Although everyone is welcome to use our services (where applicable), we do not have services specifically for issues surrounding sexuality and sexual orientation. Contact the organizations below for help.
