Services to help caregivers through the crisis
Arborescence and Le Transit crisis center, two of Montreal's leading mental health organizations, are pooling their expertise to provide a continuum of psychosocial services to members of the entourage of people living with mental health issues and who are going through or experiencing a crisis situation. As part of this project, we offer several services.
INDIVIDUAL SERVICES
Individual psychosocial support and assistance with legal procedures.
WORKSHOP SERIES
A series of workshops designed to help demystify crisis for loved ones and the person they are caring for. Using psycho-educational and interactive content, the workshops help loved ones recognize their emotional state, so they can better respond to and prevent crises.
CONFERENCES
Arborescence and Le Transit frequently organize conferences open to the general public, covering a variety of themes related to the caregiver crisis. These events include informative talks, testimonials and other interventions focused on this topic.
