After years of caregiving, Marcos has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at the Madrid Counselling Collective cost $55 each. Marcos 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 Marcos 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 Marcos, 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 $1,655 goes: • 20 therapy sessions: $1,400 • Psychiatric assessment: $250 • Workbook and resources: $5 Thanks for being kind about this.
