What we do
We are an Emotional Support Chat Centre. Feeling down and need to connect to someone? Our Certified Listeners are here to listen, support you, and guide you in the right direction.
Connect for free with the first available Certified Listener. All of our Certified Listeners are volunteers and have been trained and meet our Core Competencies and abide by our Code of Ethics.
Emotional Support
What is an Emotional Support Chat Centre? We compliment the work done by Distress Call Centres and Crisis Call Centres. We cater to people who need emotional support before they are in either distress or crisis.
We believe that by providing early-stage and real-time interventions to the masses, we can help individuals make better mental health lifestyle choices to live better, happier, healthier lives.
This is what our volunteers have to say about our training programs.

I think that the majority of the information could be shown in 1 video rather than multiple parts. However, the videos do explain the process well. It would also be helpful to update the video about the tawk dashboard as it has already been updated.

Really great training! Some videos for navigating Tawk were outdated so they didn’t match up completely.

The training was very helpful and the videos were informative. I think some of the quizzes could be better if there were a variety of types of questions. I think that would be more engaging and would help the trainee understand their level of understanding better. All in all, it was a fantastic training program that I am thankful to have been able to go through!

I always feel useful and satisfied when empathizing with people to make decisions easier for them. Assisting people to make decisions is not that difficult, it is only by helping them to verbalize their thought process. Therefore, only a good listener with strong empathy and a non-judgmental approach is needed.

The information provided in the training is pretty useful. It would be best if more examples can be provided. One thing that needs to be improved is word-spelling.
