What service does Nightline Zurich provide?
We support you, no matter what is concerning you! Daily stressors, fear of upcoming exams or aimless? We listen to you, provide information about study-related matters or refer you to specialists if required.
We are here for you during the late evening hours: When bad feelings and fears often become pressing and other conversation partners and specialists aren’t available. You can freely speak to us about anything that is worrying you.
