After burnout at work, Fleur has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at The Hague Wellbeing Centre cost $65 each. Fleur 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 Fleur could afford. The therapist recommends 16 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Fleur, 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 $2,350 goes: • 16 therapy sessions: $1,900 • Psychiatric assessment: $410 • Workbook and resources: $40 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Updates from Femke

  1. Update from The Hague: I made the first payment toward workbook and resources. We're at 23% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($259 in total) the plan for 16 therapy sessions is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
