LissnUp

Simply book an anonymous listening session through our platform. No personal information is required — you can use just a first name or nickname. Our trained listeners provide confidential support in a completely private, judgment-free environment.

No. LissnUp is not therapy, counseling, or medical treatment. Our trained listeners offer emotional support without giving advice or making diagnoses. It's like having someone whose only role is to truly hear you.

Text sessions start at $5, and voice sessions at $7.50 for 15 minutes. You can book 15 or 30-minute slots depending on what you need. All payments are secure and handled through our booking platform.

You can often find sessions available the same day. Our listeners are available across time zones, so just pick the session type and time that works best for you.

If you're in immediate danger or experiencing a mental health emergency, please contact emergency services (911), the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (988), or text HOME to 741741. LissnUp is for non-crisis emotional support.

Your privacy is our top priority. Sessions are not recorded or saved. We use secure, encrypted technology and never store personal details. Most users stay anonymous by using only a nickname or first name.

Our listeners are trained to support without judgment, advice, or expectations. There’s no pressure to update or maintain a relationship. You can be fully honest without worrying about burdening someone.

Anything on your mind — stress, relationships, loneliness, tough decisions, or everyday frustrations. Nothing is too small or too messy. We're here to listen without judgment or advice.

Absolutely. Many people book weekly or biweekly check-ins. There’s no commitment — book as often as feels right for you.

That's totally normal. Many sessions start with 'I don't even know where to begin.' Our listeners are great at making you feel comfortable — start wherever you feel ready.

LissnUp is perfect for people who want someone to really listen — without giving advice, judging, or trying to fix things. If you need medical or clinical help, a licensed therapist is the better fit.

Our listeners are trained volunteers — not licensed therapists. They're selected for empathy, compassion, and the ability to listen without judgment. Each completes onboarding focused on active listening skills.

No account is required. You can simply book a session, choose a time, and share a nickname if you like. It’s simple, fast, and private.

After booking, you'll receive a unique session token. At your scheduled time, visit your session link to connect with your assigned listener. It's that simple.

When you're afraid of judgment, you need a safe space where you can express emotions freely without criticism. LissnUp provides anonymous listening where you control what you share, and trained listeners offer only understanding - never judgment.

When you feel like you can't trust anyone with personal thoughts, talking with someone outside your social circle can help. Anonymous listeners have no agenda except understanding you - they won't gossip, judge, or try to fix your relationships.

Many people need emotional support but aren't ready for therapy. If you're dealing with everyday stress, relationship issues, or feeling overwhelmed, sometimes you just need someone who will truly listen without trying to diagnose or treat you. That's the space between self-help and therapy that LissnUp fills.

Feeling misunderstood often happens when people try to relate to your experience rather than simply witnessing it. LissnUp listeners are trained to focus entirely on understanding your unique perspective without comparing it to their own experiences or rushing to offer solutions.

Bottling up emotions is a common coping mechanism, but it can increase stress and anxiety over time. Having a safe outlet to express feelings - whether through anonymous listening, journaling, or trusted relationships - helps process emotions healthily rather than suppressing them.
