With Hushley, you move at your own pace. If you feel embarrassed to tell us your name then you can remain anonymous. If you’re not ready to speak to a professional but you want to feel less alone in your struggles, then we’ll connect you with a certified Helper; someone who has been through a similar experience. It’s like having a trusted friend, only they are completely outside of your family and social network. A Helper will listen to you, respect your experience, and support you in a non-judgemental way.
We believe once someone has a lived experience of mental illness, lessons are learned. This collective knowledge has value and it can help others who are at an earlier stage of their healing journey. Someone’s hardships can be valuable to others.
That said, while we believe everyone’s experience is valuable, we also want to provide a safe and responsible service. We recognize that some people are more suitable to offer help than others. That’s why we will only hire Helpers that have been duly certified by recognized authorities. You can trust you are in good hands.
