Walden Peer Counseling is an anonymous and confidential hotline and walk-in peer counseling service staffed by Yale undergraduates. We are available to talk about anything that’s on your mind. We are open every weekday and weekend night during the academic year when classes are in session; the hotline operates from 8 PM to 8 AM every night. Our office, in the Welch B basement, is open from 8 PM to 1 AM Sunday through Thursday. The number for the hotline is (203) 432-TALK (203-432-8255).

Walden is taking applicants in the Fall semester for the first time! If you are interested in becoming a Walden peer counselor, we welcome you to apply by filling out the application form before Friday, October 24th. If you are selected for an interview, we will notify you shortly. Please note that only current sophomores and juniors may apply in the Fall.
