Help Craig afford 10 counseling sessions
Craig is working through military deployment and needs help paying for 10 sessions with a licensed counselor.

After military deployment, Craig has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Pretoria cost $35 each.
Craig 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 Craig 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 Craig, 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 $700 goes:
• 10 therapy sessions: $620
• Psychiatric assessment: $70
• Workbook and resources: $10
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Hope things get better soon. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless
Thinking of you and your family. Wishing Craig a smooth procedure and a full recovery. After 23 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Jaipur.

Praying for you, Suren. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Best of luck. Hope the doctors have good news. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Auckland
Gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Pretoria.
