After a long hospital stay, Carolina has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at Madrid Wellbeing Centre cost $60 each. Carolina 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 Carolina 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 Carolina, 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: $220 • Workbook and resources: $30 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

  • Thanks for sharing this, Yolanda. Get well soon. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best.

    • Thinking of you and your family. Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Oakland so I could bring a meal. Take care.
