FREE EMOTIONAL SUPPORT FOR THOSE MOMENTS WHEN YOU JUST NEED SOMEBODY TO TALK TO.

We’ve all been there. We’ve all had moments where we didn’t feel our best.
Sometimes what we really need in these situations, is just somebody to talk to,
- somebody who cares, somebody who won’t judge, and will listen without bias.
This is not always possible to find in our own circles of family and friends.
BuddyHelp will connect you to trained active listeners - compassionate, caring
volunteers who will listen, support, and be there for you. Our methods are
peer-reviewed and evidence-backed.
 * 91% of users
   feel meaningfully better after talking to a listener.
 * 79% of people
   believe listeners are able to help people with mental health struggles
 * 80% of users
   indicated that they would happily recommend it to others.




3 SIMPLE STEPS

The most straight-forward and intuitive experience you can imagine.

You don’t want yet-another platform to sign up to, let alone yet-another-app to
install. All you need to do is press chat - that’s it! We work with the tools
you already have. And our active listeners receive your message anonymously on
their messenger of choice - Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp or Telegram. We built
this to be completely frictionless, and allow for rapid scaling - in order to
support as many people as possible, and be there when the world needs us the
most.

 * 1. Start a chat
 * 2. Get matched with a listener
 * 3. Talk to your listener

 * 100% Free Chat with a Volunteer Listener


FOR WHEN YOU NEED MORE

Professional, licensed and vetted counselors that you can trust. The same
ongoing professionalism and quality you would expect from an in-office
counselor. While BuddyHelp is dedicated to offering free volunteer-led support,
our friends over at BetterHelp are focused on professional online therapy. They
have already helped over 4 million people to talk to a therapist online.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

 * What is BuddyHelp?
   
   BuddyHelp is an emotional support platform, where we facilitate conversations
   between people who are in emotional distress with caring, patient,
   compassionate individuals who will listen, and hold space. They are unpaid
   volunteers and have usually been through a rough patch themselves, knowing
   just how much it helped to have someone to talk to. In most cases, when one
   suffers from anxiety, job-related distress, domestic distress, breakups, fear
   of uncertainty, trauma, or simply not feeling one’s best, the best thing one
   can do is to talk about it. This allows for you to mentally process what’s in
   your head and find your way back to the light. In many cases, it is hard to
   find someone who will just listen, without judgement or trying to give
   unsolicited advice. BuddyHelp aims to be that neutral partner, always there
   for you, always with an open ear.
 * Who’s it for, is BuddyHelp for me?
   
   BuddyHelp is most effective for mild mental distress and emotional imbalance.
   In fact, according to research it is said to be just as effective as
   traditional therapy for these user groups. If you are looking for a more
   solid counselling foundation, we suggest that you consider therapy instead.
   Click here to learn more about the differences between peer support and
   therapy, and where to receive therapy. If you are suffering from severe
   mental conditions or are in a state of immediate crisis - do not use this
   site. These resources will be able to provide you with immediate help
   worldwide.
 * What BuddyHelp is not:
   
   BuddyHelp is not a full replacement for therapy. If you’re considering
   therapy, Click here to learn more about it.
 * When should I choose therapy over peer support?
   
   If you are looking to work on deeper underlying mental issues, then therapy
   would be the way to go. The reason being that you will have a highly skilled
   and experienced licensed therapist to work with you 1-on-1 through your
   issues. This is generally a longer process and can take anywhere from a week
   up to several years. Peer support on the other hand, is a great option for
   short-term distress, when you have something on your mind that you want to
   talk over. It is a great help for that, as it is instantaneous, completely
   anonymous and always available.
 * Do you also provide therapy?
   
   We don’t provide therapy, but our friends over at BetterHelp do. You can gain
   access to the world’s leading online therapy provider, with highly skilled
   and experienced licensed therapists.
 * Can I become a listener?
   
   We are an open platform and aim to fill the world’s emotional support
   deficit. We are actively growing our support base of volunteers. A volunteer
   listener is someone who deeply cares about the wellbeing of others, is full
   of compassion and wants to play a vital part in keeping the world’s emotional
   balance in check through times of crisis. In return the listener gains
   invaluable knowledge in communication and psychology, as well as excellent
   skill in active listing. We train our listeners with our industry-vetted
   training program at the psychology university, free of charge. Not everyone
   is cut out to be a listener, but those that are, will know it. If you feel
   called to join us, click here to learn more about your next steps.
 * I would like to donate to BuddyHelp. How can I do that?
   
   BuddyHelp is fully volunteer-ran. It is a platform built on altruism and a
   desire to help people. Your support will help us to keep it growing. Click
   here to learn more.




WE ARE HERE FOR YOU, WHENEVER YOU NEED SOMEONE TO TALK TO

BuddyHelp has already helped thousands of people just like you
"As the concept of Talk Therapy, for free, it provides a good safety net.
Especially for those, like myself, who A) Can’t afford therapy in real life B)
Have at times not been able to leave my flat to get help C) Have needed support
right now, at a moments notice and D) Have been too nervous to get support over
the phone or face-to-face, online is comfortable. Don’t expect it to provide you
with solutions, but if you need someone to talk to, even just to clarify your
own solution, or if you're isolated and just want to connect with someone
likeminded, it can help tremendously"
Jeff Alen, California

"I started using Buddyhelp to help me with all of my problems that I kept to
myself for too long. The people on here are kind and very understanding. They
don’t rush you to say anything and I feel comfortable talking to people about my
problems more than I ever did. And one of the listeners was going through the
same thing as me so it is nice to know that you're not the only person going
through things. I recently became a listener and I love helping people with
their problems. It makes me feel happy and it also helps in my own wellbeing as
it helps me reflect on my own personal problems."
Julia Morison, England
