Hey there! I'm Gavin, and I'm glad you're here. I work in education as a mentor for middle and high school students, and I genuinely enjoy helping people navigate life's challenges. I believe everyone deserves a safe space to talk, feel heard, and be themselves without fear of judgment. Life has taught me a lot, and I've learned that sometimes the most helpful thing we can do for one another is simply listen. Whether you need to vent, work through something difficult, or just have someone to talk to, I'm happy to listen with an open mind and an open heart. Outside of that, I enjoy art, gaming, gardening, and good conversation. I'm always happy to meet new people, so feel free to reach out if you see me online. I'd love to hear your story!

⌚ Availability  August 19th, 2026 & Onward: I'm prioritizing my own mental health and family obligations, so my availability will be inconsistent these days; however, I'm happy to say that I'm accepting new member chats for the time being and will also continue supporting current long term members. 🔓 Should I be available, expect us to talk for around an hour via live chats. Otherwise, expect a response from me within the same week and willingness to schedule a time that works for the both of us. We can also message intermittently through offline messaging. Your best bet to get a hold of me is reaching out on Sunday Afternoons (EST) or rather what I hope to make them - Service Sundays ✨ * Green circles adjacent to my profile indicate that I am available to welcome new member chats and to follow up anyone who I have already spoken with.  * Orange circles adjacent to my profile indicate that I'm occupied giving my undivided attention to someone in a member chat or am focusing on other tasks. I may not be able to have 1-on-1 chats at that time but am open to coordinating dates and times for future chats. * Red circles adjacent to my profile indicate that I am unavailable to take on new member chats but am open to coordinating dates and times for future chats.  Please refer to my "Categories" section for a list of topics I'm available to discuss with members as well as ones that I'm personally familiar with, marked with stars. If you decide to reach out, please detail in your initial messages the topic you'd like support with and how you'd like to be supported. ✅ ------------------------- 🔊 Listening Style Brad here! (he/him) 👋 If you're reading this, it's nice to e-meet you! My goal is to be a supportive pillar for you through formal conversations or through casual conversations. Formal conversations prioritize emotional support and active listening while casual conversations are more open ended. Regardless of what you need, you can count on me to keep our conversations confidential, judgment-free and positive.  Friendly Reminders  * Times might be tough, but together, we can prove that we're tougher 💪 * I hear you and I'm here for you 🫂 * This is a safe space and a familiar place 😌 * I'm not a mental health expert, but that doesn't stop me from being professional ⭐ ------------------------- 📘 Day in the Life  On 7 Cups, you can find me most active on Sundays supporting members in 1-on-1 chats as a listener and occasionally actively commenting in the group chats and on forum posts.    Outside of 7 Cups, you can find me failing to understand why I keep losing the majority of chess matches to my little brother, practicing self-care by working on jigsaw puzzles, and winding down for the day with a good book. 🙏 My biggest challenge with hobbies and interests is finding the time to engage with them all because they are JUST. SO. MANY! Wanting to get back into running, wanting to play the piano, listening to a wide variety of music and watching a suspenseful show are just a few of those many.   ------------------------- 📄 Personal Statement  My goal is to pay it forward: There's a positive cycle and relationship between listeners and members where both benefit from supportive conversations. Members rely on support from listeners to overcome challenges and listeners rely on members to develop a greater sense of self worth and make a difference. We all have a part to play in making the world a better place for ourselves as both individuals and as a community. By pledging to pay it forward and remembering how much I appreciate what I've gotten from 7 Cups, I hope to inspire others to pay it forward as well and to continue the positive cycle. To develop as a listener, I've undergone verification, graduated from the Quality Listening Program, completed the internship program on 7 Cups and will consult more training to continue learning and growing.  Listening to you,  This is Brad 😇 ------------------------- 📨 Resources for Members 7 Cups Welcome Pack: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1CL9Yu_6zixlapOjdrhCgKLy9JN5wY3HWdrGH7PIO2WI/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.p2ah3g8frtbm  7 Cups Basics: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1M53Nm5-pbtxx2_jKfXYgYzo3NgXxjNfMwfzVSRC1rZg/edit?tab=t.0  Crisis Resources:  https://www.7cups.com/crisis/      https://help.7cups.com/hc/en-us/articles/360026242213-Non-Crisis-Suicidal-Thoughts      Depression:  https://www.7cups.com/forum/depression/ResourcesforDepression_214/DepressionSupportResourcesMasterpost_251542/   On Narcissism & Manipulation:  https://abusewarrior.com/mental-health/manipulation-tactics/  -------------------------

If you are tired, you can lean on me. You don't have to go through everything alone.  Now back in school for Psychology and will go on to get my masters in Mental Health Counseling. 

Unfortunately i can only take friendly chats for the time being as i am tired and recovering from a long time dealing with feelings of loneliness, unwanted, unloved and losing hope of finding someone who sees more in me

Hey!!  In my dark phase 7cups played a role to give strength.  Wish i could support the same to others . I prefer slow chat that suits my work n routine as my single mom. So have to balance personal life along with 7cups Right now I won't be taking intense issue

The world is a better place with you in it. We’re hanging on together, and one day, we’ll see how things get better, even if it’s hard to imagine now. You’re so incredibly brave and strong, even in this moment when you may not feel like it. Please reach out for help because you deserve support—you owe it to yourself to be here. 💛 While 7 Cups isn’t a crisis site and listeners dont have the right training, I want to share some resources that could offer you some help or support: Please take a moment to read this: https://metanoia.org/suicide/ Once you read that please reach out to someone anyone, Family, friend, mentor, school, counselor, church, hotline cups crisis page:https://www.7cups.com/crisis/   List of international hotlines: https://blog.opencounseling.com/suicide-hotlines/  ─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ─── Friendly Reminders: 🌻 Maybe some things don’t get better, but we do. We grow stronger. We learn to live with the messiness and adapt to what we can’t change.

It’s okay to feel deeply, and remember that you won’t always feel the same way you do right now. 🌻 Mistakes are part of being human, and every choice you make, every feeling you have, makes sense in the bigger picture of your life. Someone else, in your shoes, would likely feel just the same. 🌻 And most importantly, love yourself, speak yourself, because: 🌻"Life gets hard, and it gets messed up, When you give so much, but it’s not enough, When the highs are too high, and the lows are too low, Don’t let it kill you—don’t let it break your heart." ❤️ 🌻 Healing does not mean the damage never existed. It means the damage no longer controls our lives  ─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ─── Let’s Walk Together: Sometimes, being human can feel heavy. Life can feel overwhelming, and the weight of our thoughts can be too much. Whether it's panic, sadness, anger, frustration, or numbness—you don’t have to face it alone. I will not have all the answers, but dark places are so much less scary when you’re not alone.  ─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───  With love, Ezra, (Ez, essie, estre, Z, zar, zaresoaus, fai, starsie, stars, cool grandma) #hopeforhappyfeet #meepmeep #ByeByeCliques #EdGang #UnicornsForSienna  ─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───
