After years of caregiving, Kylie has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at the San Jose Counselling Collective cost $110 each. Kylie 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 Kylie 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 Kylie, 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 $3,300 goes: • 20 therapy sessions: $2,900 • Psychiatric assessment: $390 • Workbook and resources: $10 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Matthew

    Thinking of you and your family, Matthew. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Lahore so I could bring a meal. Love from Mérida

      Keep going, Matthew. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings.

          So sorry you're going through this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Mumbai.
