Helsa is an online platform that helps LGBTQ+ people improve their mental health by:

- Helping LGBTQ+ people understand their own mental health better, through online wellbeing tests and LGBTQ+ specific mental health content.
- Matching LGBTQ+ people with LGBTQ+ specialised therapists that are right for their unique needs and requirements through a matching algorithm.
- Letting you browse a therapist directory and connecting you directly with one of 50+ partner therapists online and offline (post the pandemic, of course), all of which are vetted, accredited and specialised in LGBTQ+ mental health.The platform is **completely free** to use and setting up a user account takes a couple of minutes.**For more info, visit the [Helsa website here:](http://www.helsahelps.com/?ref=scenemag.co.uk)**
