Also, how to guide a guest to another listener in a gentle, supportive manner. And, how to evaluate if you really need to do so. And alternative options where you offer other listeners and resources without ending your chat.There are certainly times to help a guest to a different listener, but sometimes I worry we resort to that too quickly, or may do so in ways that are detrimental to the guest feeling safe and supported and welcome here. (that may not be the case though, i just see the part that takes place in the chatrooms, not all the successful chats that are happening)
