Lahti Crisis Centre and Hämeenlinna Crisis Centre offer short term crisis counseling and guidance in crisis situations for anyone living in Finland including immigrants, asylum seekers, victims of human trafficking and undocumented immigrants.
No referral is needed to book an appointment. Common reasons for a client to seek help from the Crisis Centre:

Clients can have 1-5 meetings for crisis counseling. The aim of the counseling is to find solutions and resources to get over the difficult situation.
