Who is The Teen Talk Room for?
The Teen Talk Room is designed to support teenagers and young adults who want a space to talk about personal worries, emotional challenges, relationships, confidence and other aspects of growing up.
How does the support work?
The Teen Talk Room operates through email and social media chat channels. This allows young people to communicate in writing and gives them time to express their thoughts in their own words. Please read the support information to understand the process, availability and what to expect.
What if I don’t know what to say?
That’s completely understandable. You don’t need to explain everything perfectly or have a clear understanding of your feelings before reaching out. Starting with what’s on your mind is enough.
Can parents find out more?
Yes. Parents and carers can read about the service, its approach and its suitability for their young person before deciding whether to make contact.
Is the service confidential?
Privacy is important, but confidentiality has limits, particularly when safeguarding concerns arise. Please read the privacy policy and service terms to understand how information is handled and when information may need to be shared to protect a young person.
Is The Teen Talk Room a crisis service?
N. The Teen Talk Room is not an emergency or crisis service. Email and chats may not be monitored continuously, so it should not be used when urgent help is needed. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, contact emergency services.
YOUR STORY MATTERS. YOUR FEELINGS MATTER. YOU MATTER.
The Teen Talk Room provides support and guidance within the scope of its service. It is not a substitute for emergency assistance or specialist mental health treatment where these are needed.
