Joanne talks to Jessica Levy of SOS Detresse .

SOS Détresse offers discreet help to people in need. A phone call or writing an email is for most people simple and uncomplicated: you don’t need to arrange an appointment, you don’t need to go anywhere to get help and you are not being observed.

Dr Levy joined SOS Détresse to set up an English-language helpline at the counselling service, the English-language helpline will open to callers--people in acute personal crises or suffering from long-term difficulties or who simply want clarification or support in their interpersonal relationships.

The idea of launching an English-language helpline is a recognition of the demographic changes in Luxembourg as English becomes more commonly used as the lingua franca among expats of different nationalities and is also spoken more by a new generation of Luxembourgers themselves.
