 About BuddyHelp:

BuddyHelp .org provides immediate & free chat-based emotional support and online therapy to those who need help. We work both with volunteer listeners and licensed therapists, with the goal to keep our world’s emotional balance and mental resiliency in check.

Full details below:

BuddyHelp is a free mental health resource that provides emotional support to the millions of people who are struggling and who just need someone to talk to. It is chat-based and anonymous. The service is led by compassionate volunteers, who work remotely from the comfort and convenience of their smartphones. They connect with people who need someone to talk to, providing a safe space, free of judgment or bias.
Volunteer listeners are trained in active listening and psychological first aid, providing them with the tools needed to make a difference in people’s lives. It is COVID-19 safe, as it is fully remote and can be done from anywhere.
