Training wheels
I am brand new to this space and feeling a little lost. I am a trained counsellor and looking to help others. As a newbie not sure where to go, what to do!
@Monty32 Members can help members, but there are more things that a listener can do. To get a listener account - https://www.7cups.com/listener/become-a-volunteer-listener.php
Note though that you would be limited to what you can do as a listener, you cannot provide counselling with a listener account.
There are also therapist accounts, I'm not totally sure what the options are to get one of those. There was mention of a therapist community at some point but all of that is totally hidden to me. You cannot chat with members unless they go for they are paying for therapy. You can post in the forums. Therapists used to be able to enter the chat rooms but I haven't seen one in a long time, I don't know if that's still possible.
@LisaDeRegtMBPsS Knows more about the therapist accounts than me!
How do I change to a listener account please
@Monty32 If you haven't made an account yet the link I shared above should work. If you used the same email address you should have a switch account option when you click on our profile in the top right. Sometimes it's glitchy if you log out and in you should have the option between accounts.
If you're using the app hopefully someone else can chime in.
