Bio

I'm a teacher and educator with an interest in the therapeutic role of creativity. Being human just makes me want to help, no matter what you need to talk about.  A lot of my work has included listening, so 7 Cups is a great place to keep up the practice.

I listen to adults and promise to be an empathetic and patient listener (and not judge!) if you come to chat to me. I also take on long term listening, so if you need support over a period of time I can help there too. My hours vary, but at the moment I can often be found online on Friday / Saturday evenings. I am in the UK, so remember I work on GMT / BST 😁

I also rescue hamsters - hence my ID on here - and train them to be therapy animals.  🐹

Looking to take on long term chats

...See more Hi, I'm Hamstermum, and I am volunteering here to take on some members who need long term support. I'm happy to take on addiction and recovery chats and have personal lived experience of anxiety, panic attacks, bullying, being dyslexic, being on the autistic spectrum and living with PTSD. Leave me a message via my profile and I will get back to you to see if we can arrange something helpful.

Good person. Knows when to listen and when to talk. Good at offering emotional support while trying to figure out practical solutions for complicated problems. They may not work out, but those are the failings of the organizations supposed to help people, not this wonderful listener.
