Free psychological counseling for young people in Chisinau – a step towards balance and confidence

Tinerii cu vârste între 14 și 35 de ani pot beneficia gratuit de servicii de consiliere psihologică la Centrul Municipal de Tineret Chișinău (CMTC). Inițiativa vine ca răspuns la nevoia tot mai mare de sprijin emoțional și mental în rândul tinerilor, oferind un spațiu sigur în care aceștia pot discuta deschis despre gânduri, temeri și provocări.

De ce consiliere psihologică gratuită pentru tineri

Tranziția de la adolescență la viața adultă aduce multe schimbări – de la presiunea studiilor și carierei, până la relațiile cu cei din jur sau gestionarea propriilor emoții. Multe persoane tinere nu știu cui să ceară ajutor sau se tem de stigmatul asociat problemelor emoționale.

Prin serviciile de consiliere gratuite, CMTC își propune să normalizeze ideea de a cere ajutor și să încurajeze sănătatea mintală ca parte firească a dezvoltării personale.

Cum decurge o ședință de consiliere

Tinerii care solicită ajutor sunt primiți de psihologi autorizați, cu experiență în lucrul cu adolescenți și tineri adulți. Discuțiile sunt confidențiale, iar durata unei ședințe este de aproximativ 50 de minute.

Procesul începe printr-o întâlnire de cunoaștere, în care se discută principalele dificultăți, apoi psihologul și tânărul stabilesc împreună pașii următori.

Ședințele pot viza subiecte diverse:

  • anxietate, stres sau atacuri de panică;
  • dificultăți de adaptare la școală, facultate sau locul de muncă;
  • probleme de comunicare și relaționare;
  • încredere în sine, motivație și autocunoaștere.

Cum te poți programa

Pentru a beneficia de serviciu, tinerii trebuie să completeze formularul de înregistrare disponibil pe pagina de Facebook sau Instagram a Centrului Municipal de Tineret Chișinău ori aici. După înregistrare, vor fi contactați pentru a stabili ziua și ora ședinței, în funcție de disponibilitatea psihologului.

Un pas mic care poate schimba multe

Într-o perioadă în care tot mai mulți tineri se confruntă cu oboseală emoțională și presiune socială, consilierea psihologică devine nu un lux, ci o necesitate reală.

Centrul Municipal de Tineret Chișinău oferă un cadru deschis, sigur și prietenos, unde fiecare tânăr este ascultat, înțeles și încurajat să-și regăsească echilibrul.

Hai și tu să ai grijă de tine!

Dacă simți că ai nevoie de cineva care să te asculte, nu ezita să faci primul pas.Completează formularul de programare — consilierea este gratuită, dar impactul ei poate fi neprețuit.

Solidarity Action Day arrives for the first time in Moldova

Un nou val de solidaritate și implicare civică prinde contur în rândul tinerilor din Republica Moldova. Pentru prima dată, inițiativa internațională Solidarity Action Day (SAD) ajunge și la noi în țară, oferind oportunitatea tinerilor să combine experiența practică cu spiritul civic.

Creat în 1964, programul se desfășoară anual în peste zece țări europene și are un scop simplu, dar puternic: tinerii muncesc o zi într-o companie, instituție publică sau organizație non-guvernamentală, iar salariul simbolic aferent acestei zile este donat către cauze sociale sau educaționale. Astfel, fiecare participant contribuie la schimbare — învățând, lucrând și sprijinind comunitatea.

În cadrul programului, participanții pot explora o varietate de domenii, de la activități administrative și educaționale, până la implicare în ONG-uri sau proiecte comunitare. În unele cazuri, tinerii pot ocupa chiar roluri simbolice, cum ar fi „președinte pentru o zi”, experimentând în mod direct responsabilitatea și importanța deciziilor.

Solidarity Action Day este mai mult decât un exercițiu de voluntariat — este o platformă europeană de educație nonformală, includere și colaborare intersectorială. Prin participarea la acest proiect, tinerii moldoveni au șansa de a-și construi primele experiențe profesionale, de a înțelege mai bine lumea muncii și de a deveni promotori ai solidarității sociale.

Organizatorii invită toți tinerii de peste 16 ani să se înscrie și să devină parte din prima generație SAD Moldova. Formularul de participare este disponibil online aici.

E timpul să transformi o zi de muncă într-o zi de solidaritate. Implică-te, inspiră și contribuie la o lume mai unită!

National Forum of Youth Workers 2025: Two days of inspiration, collaboration and learning in Chisinau

Chisinau, October 17-18, 2025 – The youth arena in the Republic of Moldova has come to life again! Dozens of youth professionals, facilitators and representatives of youth organizations gathered at the National Forum of Youth Workers, held under the theme “Accelerating the training and professional development of youth workers in the Republic of Moldova”.
The event was organized by the MilleniuM Development Training Institute in partnership with UNFPA Moldova.

Why this forum is important for the future of youth

The Forum provided participants with a safe space for learning, exchange of experience and professional development. At a time when the role of the youth worker is becoming increasingly complex, the event focused on lifelong learning, educational innovation and collaboration between the public, private and non-governmental sectors.

Over two days, participants discussed:

  • How youth workers’ key competences can be developed;
  • innovative ways of involving young people;
  • and how the national network of those working in the field can be strengthened.

Workshops, discussions and ideas bringing the community together

The Forum program included training sessions, panel discussions and interactive activities moderated by experts in the field of youth, education and community development. Participants had the opportunity to share their own experiences, challenges and practical solutions applied in their localities.

A popular highlight was the section dedicated to good practices in youth work, where youth organizations and youth centres from different regions presented successful models – from educational clubs to volunteering initiatives and psychological counselling.

Participants’ voices: “We rediscovered our motivation”

For many youth workers, the forum was more than a professional event – it was a source of energy and inspiration.

“We often work in isolation, in small towns, and forget that we are part of a strong network. Here we rediscovered our motivation and realized how important it is to work together,” said one of the participants.

The same idea was also underlined by the organizers, who stressed that the forum is an essential step in the continuous professionalization of those who support young people in their personal and social development.

A step towards the future of youth work in Moldova

The 2025 edition of the forum marks an important milestone in strengthening the youth sector in Moldova. Through the partnership with UNFPA Moldova, the focus has been on integrating the themes of mental health, social inclusion and community leadership into the daily work of youth workers.

The event encouraged participants to develop local projects that support youth empowerment and participation in decision-making.
