Nightline Lyon

An evening listening service for students in Lyon

Our listening service is open from 8:30 pm to 2:30am Thurs. to Mon.
You can reach us by phone or chat.

You have just arrived in Lyon and don’t know anyone yet at your university or school? You’d like to confide in fellow students, or simply talk about the last movie you saw on Netflix? Our helpline is here for you.

☝️ Please note our volunteers are not mental health professionals! If you're looking for professional support, please visit our directory.

🧑‍🎓 If you’re not a student at uni yet, there are other helplines you can call such as SOS help.

Confidentiality

We never record or repeat our conversations. Your secrets are safe with us!

Non-judgemental

You can express your feelings freely: there are no taboo subjects or problems “too small” for us.

Anonymity

We will never ask you who you are, or to share any identifying information.

Non-directive

We are here to listen to you, not to guide you towards a certain decision. Only you decide what you want to say or do.

Free

Our services are free: there are no additional charges for the chat service or the calls and you won’t have to pay anything.
