Badagry
After years of caregiving, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at the Badagry Counselling Collective cost $10 each. I have been honest with my employer and taken some time off, but I can't keep going without support. Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions I could afford. My therapist recommends 12 weekly sessions, and I know that consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part, and I'm 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 $315 goes: • 12 therapy sessions: $270 • Psychiatric assessment: $40 • Workbook and resources: $5 Thanks for being kind about this.

      thinking of you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Campinas donated after I showed her your page.

        Take care. Shared this with my family. Sent it to 30 people at work. Thinking of Badagry.
