Sponsor a counselling session

While we tend to believe that counselling is important and beneficial for everyone – even just to check in with someone on a regular basis – it is extremely important for LGBTIQ+ individuals who face extra challenges for merely existing. LGBTIQ+ individuals struggle with confidence, self-worth, self-acceptance, family rejection, exclusion from various public settings and institutions and faiths and addiction, just to name a few things. We offer free counselling to Khmer LGBTIQ+ individuals in order to help them self-actualise (realise their potential, fully develop their abilities and appreciate life).

Unfortunately, counselling services in Cambodia are a luxury that is out of reach for the majority of the population. Lack of education, employment and family support are just a few factors that make counselling even less accessible for LGBTIQ+ individuals.

We use external counsellors from Penhjet Counselling Services who are Khmer and who have graduated from a Professional Health Counselling university course in Phnom Penh. This course is the first of it’s kind, including 20 hours of personal therapy for students, 100 hours of practical sessions and supervision.

Sessions are 100% confidential and client-led.
