LGBT Mental Health Support - Worldwide Directory

LGBT Mental Health Support - Worldwide Directory

Apoyo de Salud Mental LGBT - Directorio Mundial; 
Soutien en Santé Mentale LGBT - Annuaire Mondial

Finding mental health support as an LGBTQ+ individual can be challenging. That’s why we’ve compiled this extensive list of organisations for more than 200 countries/territories around the world that offer mental health support, counselling, or guidance for LGBTQ+ people. This may well be one of the biggest directories of its kind. Especially if it comes to the links being up-to-date.


Things to keep in mind:



1. Many of those organisations are here to support you in different ways: offer help through online chats, phone hotlines, e-mails, face-to-face appointments and more - most of them are free to use. 


2. Wherever possible, we've added comments in your local language so this guide feels easier and more welcoming no matter where you are.


3. Some of those organisations (depending on where you are) may not provide mental health support directly due to the nature of their aims (such as organisations specialising in advocacy or LGBTQ+ rights work). In these cases, we believe that they would be able to refer you to the appropriate trusted mental health support provider.


4. Not all of the organisations included are strictly LGBTQ+ focused - in some cases, we’ve selected the best available option for someone seeking support - even if that means choosing a general mental health organisation. This is true mostly for areas where being a member of the LGBTQ+ society carries legal risks. We included these so that you always have someone to reach out to.


5. If there weren’t local LGBTQ+ organisations available, we shared international groups instead. They can often connect you with reliable support.

6. If being a member of the LGBTQ+ society carries significant risks in your area, consider using secure, anonymous, or international channels to protect your privacy while seeking help.

7. If you are in immediate danger or experiencing a life-threatening crisis, contact ambulance services or emergency responders in your country right away. 

You are not alone - support is out there, and reaching out is a powerful step toward feeling better. ❤️


Let's Expand This List Together!

Do you know an organisation that is not mentioned below? Let us know! Either in the comments (your e-mail address will not be published) or through a message/email! 

Let’s build the biggest directory together and make sure that everyone who needs help can find it!
