Help Martine afford 10 counseling sessions
After the loss of my brother, Martine has been on a waiting list for months - private therapy is the only option, and the cost is $1,750.

After the loss of my brother, Martine has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at the Sherbrooke Counselling Collective cost $95 each.
Martine 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 Martine 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 Martine, 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 $1,750 goes:
• 10 therapy sessions: $1,350
• Psychiatric assessment: $350
• Workbook and resources: $50
I hope life is good to you.

Good luck, Claire. Get well soon. Love from Mumbai.
how is Martine doing now?
Praying for you, Claire. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Gliwice so I could bring a meal. All the best
Wishing you the best, Claire. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Ciudad de México.
Wishing you peace. Shared this with my family. Sent it to 12 people at work.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Martine.
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. 10 therapy sessions comes first ($1,350) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Good question.
Stay strong, Claire. Shared this with my family. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best.
You're not alone, Claire. Hope the doctors have good news. Take care
Praying for you. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too
best of luck. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Love from Turin.
Thinking of you and your family. Get well soon. Wish I lived closer to Gliwice so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Sherbrooke.
Take care, Claire. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Sherbrooke.
