Andreas's path to healing - a structured recovery program in Berlin
Andreas is working through years of caregiving and needs help paying for 20 sessions with a licensed counselor.
🇩🇪 Berlin, Berlin, Germany2,294 views
After years of caregiving, Andreas has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to a structured recovery program, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at the Berlin Counselling Collective cost $110 each.
Andreas 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 Andreas 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 Andreas, and we're grateful for your kindness without judgment.
Funds cover only therapy sessions, and I'll share progress updates (not private details) if I'm comfortable.
Where the $1,650 goes:
• 20 therapy sessions: $1,400
• Psychiatric assessment: $210
• Workbook and resources: $40
Every share and every dollar helps.

I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Palmira.
Thinking of you and your family. I hope things turn around soon. After 17 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Bekasi
You're not alone. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Burnaby but we're thinking of you. All the best
