Kooth.com is a fully commissioned service which provides a free, safe, anonymous and non-stigmatised way for young people to receive advice and support online. Staffed by fully trained and qualified team members (including counsellors), and available until 10pm each night, 365 days per year, it provides a much needed out of hours’ service for advice and support. As well as 1:1 support, peer to peer support can also be accessed through our moderated message forums and online magazine. Our experienced practitioners are available to provide emotional support to young people with a wide range of issues, from having a bad day to more serious issues such as bullying, stress, anxiety, depression, family relationships, sexuality, eating disorders, self-harm, abuse etc. Lots of young people are also seeking support around isolation, predicted exam grades, life changing events, their future outlook and employment options to name a few. With no long waiting times and no minimum criteria, Kooth is a fantastic way for young people to get the help and support they need, when they need it, rather than having to wait weeks for an appointment or to access face to face support. In Sandwell, young people aged 11-25 can access Kooth.
We can provide professionals with free staff training and resources for staff teams and also Kooth introductory sessions to young people you are working with. Please use the email address above to request support.
