I'm comfortable to be around. I don't judge! Let's face what is bothering you together 💗

🌱 Hi, I'm Madalyn 🌱 Welcome, I'm so glad you're here. Reaching out for support takes courage, and you don't have to carry things alone in this space. When we talk, my goal is to offer a calm, supportive presence where you can slow down, feel heard, and show up exactly as you are.  ✨ ✧✦✧ ✨ Availability 🌞 I'm typically around 11am-6pm EST, M-F 💬 Chat's usually last around 30-45 minutes, however the time can vary depending on what is supportive for you ✨ ✧✦✧✨ My Listening Style 🌿 I'm a gentle, validating, and reflective listener. I won't rush you, pressure you to share more than you're ready for, or try to "fix" what you're feeling. Instead, I focus on holding space, sitting with you through hard moments, and helping you make sense of what's coming up at your own pace. 🍃 I'll ask thoughtful, grounding questions when helpful, reflect what I'm hearing, and always lead with empathy and respect. 🌾 At the heart of it all, I hope you leave our conversations feeling a bit more grounded, more understood, and less alone. ✨ ✧✦✧ ✨ Topics I am Unable to Offer Support In * Addiction * Adoption/Foster Care * Alcohol/Drug Abuse * Domestic/Sexual Violence * Schizophrenia ✨ ✧✦✧ ✨ About Me 🌸 I am a graduate student who has studied Psychology, Higher Education Administration, and am now obtaining my Master's in Social Work. 🍀 I am drawn to work that centers emotional safety, self-reflection, boundaries, and empowerment. 🐚 Outside of 7 Cups, my interests are: traveling, watching movies/tv shows, drawing, and yoga/pilates!

Long-Term inactive. This profile is for record of my work and impact only.  Hello there :).  ​ I'm Katie, glad to meet you!  -💙 I greatly value feedback, please consider leaving a review so I can reflect on our experience💙- Please read through my profile before reaching out to me. ​​​ ⬇️ Availability: I was consistently available from 6pm - 10pm BST, Tuesday to Friday each week, for four years with occasional weeks off!  Though, my availability is additionally signified by the markers in my profile [Green= I am active and in a position to provide support so please reach out to me! Orange= I am online but may be working on other areas of the site meaning I am not exclusively active. Red= I am not online and am not in a position to provide support at the moment].  Expectations of chats and my role within them: As an active listener I take pride in my role of providing support, through maintaining a structure within chats and upholding standards within my therapeutic relationships formed within them. * As such chats are structured to last between 30 minutes and 2 hours with me. * Experiences can be held as a single interaction, inconsistent sessions, or scheduled sessions! Within chats I will take an active role and will exclusively focus on you. * My listening style reflects this!: * I take a person-centred approach to listening, tying in aspects of other therapeutical models to best support everyone. This means that I take a non-judgemental and supportive approach to communicating, so will aim to empower you to be able to help yourself process your emotions and experiences through our conversations.  * Due to this I, unfortunately, do not take casual conversations :) Compatibility/ experiences:  Thank you for considering me to support you :)  In finding a listener it is helpful to seek someone who can provide an insight into your own experiences and outlook, by sharing similar experiences and mindsets.   As such I would like to share some of my experiences to inform your decision.  Many of my experiences fall into these categories :  -Depression -Anxiety -Family stress  -relationship stress -self-esteem -C-PTSD  Though the majority of my experiences fall into those areas they are not limited to the scope of them. I am capable of talking about almost every topic, applying those experiences and lessons to better understand you. As your situation is completely unique I appreciate every chat is a new experience, I'd be very glad to listen to you vent, provide support or simply keep a conversation☺️. It is worth noting during our conversations, though I will try to listen to all experiences, I am not confident in handling some topics so will not take chats with the main focus on them. As such if your topics fall under these (listed) I would recommend searching for another listener who may be better able to respond to your specific needs: -Disordered eating -Drug addiction  -Alcohol addiction  -Sexual health problems   --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Some loving reminders ( ˘ ³˘)♥ ​​-​​​♡ You deserve respect and care, feeling alone or hurt can is a painful thing, regardless of where you are in life you deserve respect and appreciation. -♡ You are capable and wonderful, insecurity and experiences can make you forget what you're truly able to do. Recognise your abilities :) -♡ You deserve great things. Don't let negative thoughts or people overwhelm you, it can be difficult to believe but you deserve a lot from this life. -♡ You can get better! sometimes when you've felt down or hurt for so long it feels like recovery is impossible. But healing is completely possible, and so many people are here for you   -♡ Take care of yourself -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My Roles within the individual and  wider community:  General Role:  * - My most substantial Role on 7 Cups is that of an Active Listener, providing a listening support service to members with a range of issues. As well as providing support to other listeners and being active in the community forums and chatrooms to organise support on a wider scale. You can see my impact in my profile.            Most Recent Roles:  *  - My role is a Trained Active Listener [I regularly recap training and am always searching for the best ways to support people]. * - I am a verified listener [meaning I passed a mock chat to ensure my quality as a listener] * -I am a peer support [which means that I am trained to provide support to listeners after difficult chats] *  - I am the host of sharing circle group session every Tuesday at 3 pm EST/ 8pm GMT. feel free to come alone :) I have hosted for over two years now! Previous Roles: * - I was both a host at one point in time, and co-host of the listener sharing circle (every Sunday from 8am - 9am EST // with a combined time of hosting being five months). * - I was an assigned host for the healthy habits sessions before they got discontinued (I hosted every Tuesday since I first joined till the sessions merged with sharing circles, hosting for 9 months). * - At one point I also hosted friendship room weekly sessions mine was self-care Saturday!

Sometimes life feels overwhelming, and carrying everything alone can be exhausting. I’m here to offer a calm, non-judgmental space where you can talk openly and at your own pace. You don’t need to have everything figured out, and you don’t need the “right” words, just come as you are. Whether you want to vent, reflect, or sit quietly for a moment, I’m here to listen and support you with care and empathy. You are not alone in this. Let’s write this story together, line by line, letting each word carry your truth, each pause hold your breath, and each moment remind you that you are seen. 

Proud triplet of the terrific trio @InternalAcceptance and @Chassymom    Former leader of the addiction support team and have since passed the torch on to @InternalAcceptance. So proud of my amazing tripply <3 Hi there, I'm AJ but you can call me vinyl, viny or fly. Welcome to my listener profile. Glad you're here with us on 7 cups.    I'm a verified active listener. I'm happy to support you on your journey and help you navigate the bumps in the road you may come across. I've driven over many myself and have acquired much wisdom and compassion along the way. Message me if you're looking for a caring, wise and open-minded set of ears. I'm passionate about helping people in need and am heavily involved in disability, mental health, 2SLGBTQ+, and harm advocacy in my local community. I'm happy to chat about whatever's on your mind but I have the most knowledge in the areas of anxiety and panic attacks, drug/alcohol use and harm reduction, autism, ADHD, chronic illnesses and disabilities, coping with strong emotions, sexual orientation and gender identity, and post-traumatic stress.   Please note that I take 1-1 chats in 1 hour time blocks. I do this to make sure that everyone has a chance to be listened to. I'll let you know when there are 10 minutes remaining in your chat so it's easier to start wrapping things up. Looking forward to hearing from all you lovely people. It takes a lot of courage to reach out for help when you need it. Through our struggles, we can learn how to harness our strengths         

We are all visitors to this time, this place . We are passing through and our purpose is to observe, experience and learn . And then we return home .
