Support Groups
NEW SUPPORT GROUP
for Spouses and Partners
Do you have a spouse, a partner, a boyfriend, or a girlfriend who lives with mental health challenges? Or an ex that you are still concerned about? If so, it qualifies you as their caregiver. While all caregivers share similar feelings and challenges, there are some commonalities especially shared with caregivers in similar situations.
We are launching a monthly Spouses and Partners support group. If you could use some support and a place to talk about what you’re going through with people who understand, we invite you to check it out. You don’t have to live with or be married to your partner and all forms of “significant other” are welcome.
Online via Google Meet
WEDNESDAYS, 6:30-8pm
April 29; May 27; June 17
AMI-Québec’s support groups provide a warm welcome to everyone. We are here for you!
We have support groups for:
Family and friends of someone living with mental illness only: Family & Friends, BPD for Families, South Shore, Spouses and Partners
Those suffering from mental illness only: Kaleidoscope
Mixed groups for both: Anxiety/OCD, Bipolar, Depression, Hoarding, Queer Group, Young Adults
Looking for a safe and confidential place to vent, learn, and hear from people who understand what you’re going through? Support groups aim to help participants feel less alone and better understood so that they can improve how they cope with the effects of mental health challenges and mental illness on their daily lives.
Facilitated by trained volunteers who have experience, either as a family caregiver or having lived with mental illness, support groups offer an opportunity to develop a healthy perspective on mental illness, explore coping strategies, and learn about support services and resources in the community.
Like all our programs, our support groups are free!
Groups begin promptly at 6:30pm EST. We do not allow people into the groups after 6:45pm. Meetings end at 8pm.
If you have any questions, give us a call at 514-486-1448 during business hours (Monday-Thursday 9am-5pm and Friday 9am-4pm).
Please note that support groups are not set up to address crises. If you are experiencing a great or imminent concern for your well-being, consider contacting your therapist, treatment team, 811, or in case of immediate danger 911. You can find a list of crisis intervention organizations here and listening services here. A support group may not be the proper forum at such a time.
