Mission

AMI-Québec is a grassroots organization committed to helping families manage the effects of mental illness through support, education, guidance and advocacy.

We are so lucky to have such an organization as Ami-Quebec! We have been fortunate to meet Blanche, who is a highly qualified therapist and a wonderful human being. She has been so helpful and supportive. We would have made many mistakes in dealing with our family issues if she hadn't been there to guide us. She has shone light on the path we should take. We are so full of gratitude. Thank you, Blanche! Thank you Ami-Quebec!
AMI-Quebec is a wonderful organisation! I am so grateful for all of the support and guidance I've received from Blanche, I can not thank her enough. She is so compassionate and incredibly knowledgable- she has given me plenty of resources, and helped me develop the tools needed to navigate my situation. Our sessions have made such a positive impact on my life, I 100% recommend AMI Quebec to anyone who cares for in any capacity a family member with mental illness, and is looking for support.
The councillors here are very helpful, patient and provide an essential service. I felt supported and was given valuable advice for addressing concerns and was able to provide the support needed to help a loved one. Thank you.

Blanche's insights, guidance and advice helped us significantly with our situation and led to a meaningful improvement in terms of family dynamics and harmony. We are very grateful for the services provided.
Thank you Ami-Quebec and your amazing counselor, Blanche, for your support. I feel so much more equipped and able to cope with the needs of my loved ones who struggle with mental health illnesses. Your support, advice, and perspective helped me gain strength and understanding.
There is no better place to seek advice and comfort when you are a supporting family member or a close one to somebody with a mental health issue. The gentle staff and the great selection of books and reference become a balm that will soothe your soul. Do not hesitate and contact them if you need to have support in your journey. Thank you AMI-Quebec, you are an oasis of care for family and close ones to a metal ill person
I have had excellent counselling and have attended many conferences and workshops @ Ami Quebec. Each time I have learned a lot about how I think and where I can improve. The counselling changed my mindset to help me caregive better. I am lucky to have benefited from Ami Quebec's kind and gentle resources.
I'm grateful that I reached out to Ami-Quebec. Blanche helped me and provided the support I needed to help my family member with mental illness.
We have been members of Ami-Quebec for years and want to thank them for all their help and support. They offer many workshops and support groups for caregivers of people with mental health issues.
An amazing, free resource for family members of a loved one struggling with mental health problems whether formally diagnosed or not. In addition to support groups helmed by excellent facilitators, the workshops are fantastic and so informative.
