Peer Support Space Inc. - Peer Support

100% Peer-Led

All of our services and advocacy initiatives are led for and by those the services are intended for. Every community is unique and nobody can understand needs, culture, and nuances like members from the community itself. Due to this, all our services are led by and for the communities they serve.

Why PSS?

100% Peer-Led

Peer Support Space was born out of a need for a peer-led organization that exists outside of the current system which keep leaving behind the same communities. No matter what somebody is going through, we believe they shouldn't have to do it alone.

Who We Serve

100% Peer-Led

Who We Serve

We help anybody 18+

while focusing on catching individuals that are historically underserved, forcefully marginalized, and fall through the cracks of our mental health system. We are located in Central Florida but welcome anybody, living anywhere, to our virtual spaces.

What's the Community Got to Say?

"The support groups offered by Peer Support Space are as diverse as the people they bring together. Everyone's voice is heard. There is no barrier between client and provider because the facilitators are everyday people having the same sorts of experiences or identities as everyone else."

-Taylor, PSS Community Gatherings Participant

"What a fabulous organization! As a local therapist, I have referred a number of my clients to PSS's virtual support groups during COVID, to help them gain connection and community. I only hear rave reviews! Thank you, PSS, for being you!”

-Heather Stambaugh, LMHC

I came [to PSS] extremely depressed and suicidal and I was welcomed with open arms from the group. I no longer felt so alone in my struggles...I am and forever will be grateful for these calls. [They] literally have saved my life and I have made some amazing new friends!!!”

-Anonymous, PSS Daily Digital Gatherings Participant

“My favorite part about being a Peer Support Space facilitator is the authentic happiness individuals share for one another's wins and how welcoming the group is to new folx."

-Anonymous, PSS Facilitator

"Having the daily calls as a continued source of human connection and support has been lifesaving to me. It's the only thing that has prevented me from having a complete breakdown during this time.”

-Anonymous, PSS Daily Digital Gatherings Participant

"Love Peer Support Space! I'm a psychologist in the community and rely on referring clients to groups for ongoing support. I even volunteer my office space monthly for a group. Engage. Refer. Volunteer!”

-Stephanie Mahaffery, PhD

"Peer Support Space has done an incredible job creating a safe open space for anyone in the LGBTQ community. It has been such an amazing experience for my wife and I to be able to open up with no judgement, no shame, and to have such a supportive group of people we now call our close friends."

-Van, Butterfly Talks Participant

During my time at PSS, I was surrounded by people that genuinely cared for others and I wouldn’t trade that for anything. It takes a lot to be human, but thanks to Yasmin and Dandelion, we have a space that makes it a little easier.

-Jazmine, PSS Volunteer

Peer Support Space does their work with compassion, humility, and joy - you can feel that in all that they do! I love seeing their posts and joining their events - in-person and virtually. They have created a community where “it’s ok not to be ok” and I love it!”

-Daniel Anzueto, Co-Founder of Maven Leadership Collective

"I know of at least two people that were suicidal and are now ok because this group was there…"
