Do you want to speak to someone?
We all go through hard times in life and sometimes we feel like there's no solution in sight and no one to turn to. But we don't have to face our demons on our own. Sometimes, just talking to someone you trust can help. But there are times when a licensed therapist or a counsellor is needed. Below are three different platforms where you can find professionals to talk to. Some are free, some aren't. Check them out. You owe it to yourself to be happy and mentally healthy.

Speak English with Natives!
You can try it for free first but then you pay if you wish to continue. I saw the app in action (one of my students had it on her phone) and all I can say is WOW! It's unique, educational, fun and you get to speak to real people any time you wish. Check it out [here]
