A Safe Place for Self-Harm Support and Recovery

End Self-Harm was born from lived experience — a journey through struggle, healing, and the need for something better. We knew there had to be a safer, more compassionate way to reach people before it’s too late. We are a collective of individuals who understand that mental health is often misunderstood, and self-harm is a silent battle that many face alone. Through our nonprofit, we’re working to break that silence.

24/7 Lifeline

We are a lifeline for those struggling with self-harm and mental health. It began from personal experiences — stories of struggle, healing, and the need for more accessible support.

Peace Out, Stigmas

We exist to break the stigma surrounding self-harming behaviors, raise awareness, and create a safe, compassionate space for healing.

Quality Care

All of the resources in our directory — therapists, support groups, tattoo artists, laser clinics, and treatment centers — have been thoroughly vetted to adhere to our high standards of care.

Our Values

Empathy

We listen, honor lived experience, and create spaces where people feel seen and safe.

Education

We believe knowledge is power, especially when delivered with compassion and care.

Healing

We promote harm-reduction, recovery and healing that honors the whole person - without judgement or shame.
