Anywhere in the world1,752 views
After a house fire, Adam has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Paris cost $60 each.
Adam has been honest with his employer and taken some time off, but can't keep going without support.
Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions Adam could afford. The therapist recommends 20 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference.
Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Adam, and we're grateful for your kindness without judgment.
The money will be paid directly to the counselor's practice, with a session-by-session record.
Where the $2,250 goes:
• 20 therapy sessions: $1,900
• Psychiatric assessment: $300
• Workbook and resources: $50

Hang in there. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Freiburg.
rooting for you, Maëlle. I hope things turn around soon.
Stay strong. Wishing Adam a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I'm in customer support myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Paris.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Düsseldorf.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Casablanca so I could bring a meal.
Hope it all works out. Hope this works out for you. Put this on a community board in Brisbane this morning. Blessings.
