After the miscarriage, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at the Wollongong Counselling Collective cost $110 each. I have been honest with my employer and taken some time off, but I can't keep going without support. Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions I could afford. My therapist recommends 24 weekly sessions, and I know that consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part, and I'm 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 $1,350 goes: • 24 therapy sessions: $890 • Psychiatric assessment: $410 • Workbook and resources: $50 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

    Has the therapist's fee schedule been checked by the HelpBLESS team?

    • A colleague of mine might know someone for this in New South Wales. I'll ask around and let you know

      • Akash A. JatQuestion3h ago

        Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Wollongong.

        • Eliana R. WrightOwnerAnswer3h ago

          Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about 24 therapy sessions, advice is welcome too. Fair thing to want to know.

      • Good luck, Eliana. Wishing Eliana a smooth procedure and a full recovery.

        • Barasa Ouma SsebulibaQuestion3h ago

          Is 24 therapy sessions the biggest cost or is there more coming?

          • Eliana R. WrightOwnerAnswer3h ago

            Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. 24 therapy sessions comes first ($890) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks for asking.

        • stay strong, Eliana. Looking forward to the next update.

          • Fajar Bambang PratamaQuestion3h ago

            any update on how things are going in Wollongong?

            • Eliana R. WrightOwnerAnswer3h ago

              Better days than last week. Thank you all, a fuller update is coming. Ask me anything else.

          • Thinking of you and your family. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Wollongong.

            • wishing you the best, Eliana. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. God bless

              • Wishing you peace. This could happen to any of us. Don't give up. Blessings.

                • Thinking of you and your family, Eliana. Hope this works out for you. Take care

                  • So sorry you're going through this. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from London

                      Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest

                      • Hope things get better soon, Eliana. I hope things turn around soon. Love from Nagpur.
