Savannah
After a car accident, Francisco has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at Savannah Wellbeing Centre cost $85 each. Francisco 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 Francisco could afford. The therapist recommends 10 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Francisco, 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 $1,550 goes: • 10 therapy sessions: $1,150 • Psychiatric assessment: $370 • Workbook and resources: $30 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
