Yes. Listeners are required to complete several steps through the online Active Listening Training Course which helps develop active listening skills. Active Listening is a set of communication skills that demonstrate empathy, compassion, understanding, and respect. Active Listening requires that the listener completely focus on absorbing, comprehending, and reflecting what the speaker is saying. Active Listening is a great technique to help people feel better when they are going through hard times, dealing with loss, struggling with health issues, or just need to vent. Because Active Listening directs all focus towards the speaker, it removes potential sources of stress, conflict and discomfort that can happen in a regular conversation. Additionally, every listener is reviewed and may be subject to a background check to ensure they are friendly, considerate, and competent. Anyone can see how well a listener is doing simply by looking at their review score, and by checking out the badges they've earned. Listeners do not give advice, but are trained to help others come to their own conclusions through active listening skills and resources such as mindfulness excerises (http://www.7cups.com/exercises/mindfulness/?showlist=1), self-help guides (http://www.7cups.com/supportGuides/selfHelpGuides.php), hotline numbers, and more. -- Every chat with a listener is completely confidential and anonymous. You are never required to reveal your name, location, or age (except to clarify whether you are above or under 18 in sign up purposes). If a chat is not going the way you want, you can tell the listener what you expect to get from the chat politley, or you can always end the chat and find a new listener that suits you better. -- Training and guides found on 7cups take medical research into account, as seen here: http://www.7cups.com/about/research.php -- For more information about 7cups, look here: http://www.7cups.com/about/faq.php
