Telephone counseling is a confidential and free service around the clock for people in special crisis situations, for people who are thinking of taking their own life and people who have to cope with a difficult everyday life, e.g. lonely, mentally ill, people with social and financial problems restrictions or in difficult relationships. We at the Austrian Telephone Counselling Service – Emergency Helpline 142 – are here for you round the clock.

Whether you’re going through a crisis, feeling lonely, or simply need someone to talk to.

Our counselling is provided by a real person – not by AI.

Together, we’ll find a solution – in complete confidence and free of charge.
