For English speakers

During a counseling session we always talk about your situation and the questions you may have. We listen and help put your emotions and experiences into words while trying to locate your personal boundaries. We also guide you in regards to your rights and applicable legislation. 

There is no such thing as stupid questions – you can ask us anything. Our counselors are trained and used to talking about sex, boundaries, nudes, sugar dating, and more. 

It is important to us that a conversation always ends with you knowing what to do next and that you feel safe moving on without us. 

How long a counseling session lasts naturally depends on your needs.

A conversation over phone can last up to an hour while a conversation over chat can last longer. Our in-person counseling can also stretch over a longer period of time. 

Our counselors know a lot about: 

• Buying, exchanging, and selling sexual services:
  • Sugar dating
  • Webcam sex
  • Selling intimate photos and/or underwear
• Online-dating
• Unwanted approaches
• Boundaries, setting boundaries, and getting your boundaries crossed
• “Sextortion” (blackmail where the counterpart threatens to share your photos etc.)
• Emotions, desires, considerations, and thoughts in relation to buying, trading, and selling sexual services.

We understand that anonymity and confidentiality are important when you need someone to talk to.

Our counselors are bound by confidentiality and do not share information with others – unless you request it or in very specific cases where the law requires it (e.g., danger to life or serious safety concerns).

If you want to call completely anonymously, you can follow these steps to hide your phone number on your device.

How to make an anonymous call:

On iPhone:

1) Open “Settings” on your iPhone.

2) Scroll down and select “Phone.”

3) Tap “Show My Caller ID.”

4) Turn off the “Show My Caller ID” feature.

Once you’ve completed these steps, your phone number will be hidden from the counselor, and your anonymity will be maintained during the communication.

On Android:

1) Open the “Phone” app.

2) Tap the three dots in the top-right corner and select “Settings.”

3) Choose “Call settings.”

4) Tap “Additional settings,” then “Caller ID.”

5) Select “Hide number.”

Once you’ve completed these steps, your phone number will be hidden from the counselor, and your anonymity will be maintained during the communication.

SMS – Not anonymous, but still confidential

While it’s not possible to hide your phone number when sending an SMS, all messages are treated confidentially. We understand the importance of discretion and respect for your situation. Your phone number will only be visible to our counselors and will never be shared with others without your consent.

Every person, regardless of gender or sexuality, between the age of 15-30, can contact Reden Ung.

All that matters is that you want or need to talk about exchanging intimacy and sexual services (for example selling sex, sugar dating, exchanging sex, selling/exchanging intimate photos, webcam sex etc.), and/or anything that comes before, during, and after an exchange (for example online dating, unwanted approaches, sexstortion, getting your boundaries crossed both digitally and physically, stigmatisation etc.)

You are welcome to contact us even if you are under 15 or over 30 but we may refer you to another program better suited to your needs. 

We also offer counseling and guidance to relatives and professionals.

No, we will not share your story. All of our counseling sessions are confidential. This means that we can only share information with other counselors and our supervisor if we need help in regards to a counseling session.

In special circumstances, we may have to share your story with your municipality (DK: hjemkommune) in order to make sure that you are getting the help that you need. This only applies if you are under 18 years old and give us identifiable information about yourself. For example your full name, your school, or your address. 

We will always tell you before we contact your municipality.  

You can call us Monday to Friday from 09:00-16:00.

The text messages are always open, which means that you can send us a text message whenever you need to. We answer during our opening hours on week days. 

For opening hours at your local Reden Ung, please contact your counselor. 

Yes, you can.
