Need to talk to someone?

I'm back after a long self-care break. Might be a bit rusty but will listen to you :)

[Not Active] Hello there! Thank you for checking out my profile. I'm Dream, a listener here since January 2020. I'm here to provide a safe and non judgmental place for you to share your thoughts or feelings.  Unfortunately I'm not able to take 1-1 support chats currently. Please click here to view other available listeners. Some topics I'm more suited to provide support includes depression, anxiety, panic attacks, self-harm, student life and a few other I've mentioned in the 'categories' session below. Please note that I do not take any chats on sexual health or related topics. Thank you for understanding! I believe that personal development and self-improvement is a life long journey of trial and error. We are all work in progress and we all deserve respect and understanding in the process of self-discovery. ------------------------- My listener twins: @positivePumpkin22 and @lueurspace

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!

Hi! I’m a recent high school graduate with a strong interest in helping others and learning new skills. I’m currently preparing for university and enjoy volunteering, creating educational projects, and improving my communication skills. I’m excited to contribute to the 7 Cups community while developing my active listening skills.

Hello I am Zarram (She/her).  I can help anyone who wants to share their problems. If you have no one to listen to you then don't worry. I am here for you! P.S: Please do not share any kind of personal information and do not ask for it. It is against community guidelines. 

I openly listen people.

Before I write anything here, I want to point out that my English is not perfect! •☆•☆•_____________•☆•☆• Since I was twelve, I have been interested in the human mind and in how people think, feel, and cope with difficult situations. I have always cared about helping others. Friends and acquaintances often tell me that I should become a psychologist because I am a good listener and treat others with understanding. My friend is autistic and occasionally suffers from panic attacks. Several times, I have helped her calm down by speaking to her patiently and directing her attention to something soothing. This made me realize that I enjoy interacting with people and that I can remain calm and empathetic in difficult situations. •☆•☆•_____•☆•☆• Because I have experienced difficult things myself, I know how hurtful it can be to be judged by others. That is why I try to treat people without prejudice and make them feel taken seriously and understood. I would like to get involved on this platform because I want to support other people and show them that difficult phases in life can be overcome. At the same time, I am aware that I cannot replace professional therapy. Above all, I would like to listen, show understanding, and encourage people to seek professional help if necessary. ♡♡♡

Hello! I am a psychology student and plan to specialise in clinical psychology. I am always happy to listen to anything you may want to share! Ratings and reviews are always much appreciated!

💚 Verified Listener | A Safe Space, One Conversation at a Time Hi, I'm a Verified Listener on 7 Cups and currently pursuing my M.Sc. in Counselling and Family Therapy. I became a listener because I truly believe no one should have to carry their thoughts and feelings alone. Sometimes, all we need is someone who will simply listen—and I'd love to be that person for you. I'm warm, patient, encouraging, and completely non-judgmental. Whether you're feeling stressed, overwhelmed, lonely, or simply need someone to talk to, you're welcome here exactly as you are. 🌿 A little note before we chat: I usually stay available for around 30 minutes, and during that time, my focus is entirely on you and your story. You don't need perfect words or a "big" reason to reach out—if it's important to you, it's important. ( I don't mind exceeding that time limit if you really need me) ✨ One tiny favor: If our conversation helps and you enjoy chatting with me, a kind review would mean a lot and helps my profile grow so I can continue supporting more people. So, grab a virtual cup of tea ☕, take a deep breath, and remember—you don't have to figure everything out alone. I'm here to listen, one conversation at a time. 💚
