Children and young people in Switzerland who are in need of low-key, but professional psychological help.

Many children and young people cope well with the pressures of today’s world. However, an increasing number suffer from fear and anxiety in one of the most important formative phases of their lives. Without help, many of them will be left behind and will be the silent losers of tomorrow. Dependence on social institutions and even suicides are the possible effects. With providing low-key and easily accessible help programs, many of these can be helped, increasing their chances in our society.
