After the death of both parents, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to family counseling, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at the Seoul Counselling Collective cost $55 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 10 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 $1,550 goes: • 10 therapy sessions: $1,350 • Psychiatric assessment: $135 • Workbook and resources: $65 With deep gratitude, Chae-won

    take care, Chae-won. Shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in Aurora but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Aurora.

      Hang in there, Chae-won. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless
