Hey. I'm here. What's going on tonight?
honestly I don't even know where to start. everything feels like too much
That's okay. You don't need a starting point. Just tell me what's loudest right now.
work. and I haven't told anyone how bad it's gotten

Whatever it is, you can bring it here.

Three minutes from "I need to talk" to someone who gets it

1

Open the app

Tap Find a Listener, pick a topic or just say you want to talk, and tell us how you're feeling. Takes about thirty seconds.

2

Get matched

We connect you with a trained Listener who has lived through something like what you're carrying. Usually in under three minutes.

3

Say it out loud

Text for as long as you need. Nobody knows your name. End the chat whenever you want, and keep your Listener if it clicked.

A real human. Every single time.

There is no chatbot on the other end of a HearMe conversation. When you type "I'm not okay," a person reads it. Someone who trained for this, who chose to be here tonight, and who has probably felt what you're feeling.

  • Listeners online 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year
  • Matched on lived experience, not an algorithm's guess

How you sleep is how you feel

Sleep Insights connects to Apple Health or Google Health Connect and shows you what your nights are doing to your days. Then it helps you do something about it, including talking it through with a Listener when the night was a bad one.

57%average lift in mood after a single HearMe conversation

It works. Researchers checked.

Teams at Stanford, Northwell Health, Penn State, Ohio State, University of Minnesota and University of Mississippi studied what happens when people talk to a HearMe Listener. One conversation moved the needle. Not a course. Not a program. One chat.

What people say after they hang up

I can't express how much of a blessing it was to chat with a listener. They listened well and were intuitive, perceptive, and insightful. I really needed a sincere and real person and they were there.
HearMe member
I've started using it and I love it. It enables me to express my emotions, issues, concerns freely and I know that someone listens, not just hears me without prejudice.
HearMe member
She's empathetic, listens and takes a back step when we are venting. She also made me realize it's important to focus on oneself no matter how many failures come your way.
HearMe member
There is no better feeling than being able to connect with people who just need someone to listen and offer support.
