Help Andreea afford 20 counseling sessions

After the loss of my brother, Andreea has been on a waiting list for months - private therapy is the only option, and the cost is $1,000.

After the loss of my brother, Andreea has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to family counseling, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at Timișoara Wellbeing Centre cost $45 each. Andreea has been honest with her employer and taken some time off, but can't keep going without support. Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions Andreea 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 Andreea, 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 $1,000 goes: • 20 therapy sessions: $900 • Psychiatric assessment: $70 • Workbook and resources: $30 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Irina

      Sending good thoughts, Irina. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Sukkur.

        Hang in there, Irina. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.

            Get well soon. Wish I lived closer to Bacoor so I could bring a meal.

              You're not alone. Shared this with my family. After 22 years in engineering I know how hard it is to ask for anything.
