PineappleSupport, the adult industry’s leading mental health nonprofit, will attend Venus Berlin, taking place from September 25th to 28th, 2025. In partnership with Chaturbate, Pineapple Support will co-host the event’s exclusive model lounge, providing a relaxing and supportive space for performers throughout the show.
The lounge will offer refreshments, make-up stations, and a calming zen room where models can decompress between events. Pineapple Support therapist Sarah Adelaide will also be available onsite to provide emotional support and guidance for anyone who needs to talk.
As part of the event, Pineapple Support Founder and CEO Leya Tanit will also deliver a featured presentation titled “Mental Health Is a Business Strategy: Protecting Your People, Protecting Your Brand” on Friday, September 26th at 14:40. The session will explore how prioritizing mental health in the adult industry is not only a compassionate choice but a smart and necessary business strategy, highlighting actionable steps companies can take to build a culture of care and compliance.
“Mental health isn’t just a personal matter, but a professional one,” says Tanit. “Companies that invest in the wellbeing of their people are protecting their brand, boosting productivity, and building stronger communities. I’m proud to represent Pineapple Support at Venus Berlin and to share tools that can truly make a difference.”
Tanit founded Pineapple Support in 2018, after a string of losses in the adult industry from depression and other mental illnesses. The organization, a qualified 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization in the United States, has connected over 16,000 adult performers to mental health services, including free and low-cost therapy, counseling, and emotional support.
