Help Noel afford 24 counseling sessions

After the loss of my brother, Noel has been on a waiting list for months - private therapy is the only option, and the cost is $550.

After the loss of my brother, Noel has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at the Manila Counselling Collective cost $20 each. Noel 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 Noel could afford. The therapist recommends 24 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Noel, 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 $550 goes: • 24 therapy sessions: $440 • Psychiatric assessment: $80 • Workbook and resources: $30 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Cherry

  • Rooting for you, Cherry. This could happen to any of us. Love from Nagpur.

    • Hope it all works out, Cherry. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings.

      • Hope you get there. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Dehiwala
