Guidance and advice at the Crisis Services for Youth
HelsinkiMissio
If something is worrying you, get in touch with Crisis Services for Youth. Speaking in confidence to someone supportive, either on your own or with your partner, could help you. It may be enough just to be in touch with us, but if you need more specific help, we can advise you how and where to find what you need.
You don’t have to have a referral note nor any kind of diagnosis. You don’t need to live in Helsinki. And if you want to, you can always speak to us anonymously. You can speak freely to our professional helpers about whatever is troubling you, any life crisis. Perhaps you are concerned about your own health or that of someone close to you, or about loneliness – anything at all. Appointments with a crisis worker are aimed at helping you feel better, to get and keep you on the right track. We aim to prevent young people from feeling all alone when they are in some difficulty.
During our first contact we will map your situation and what you hope to achieve by speaking to someone about it. After the contact call, you can have up to five conversations with a crisis worker. Together, we will set a goal for our conversations, based on where you are and what you want to achieve. If the help we can provide is not enough, we can tell you about other services that would be most beneficial for you and what you might want to do next.
