After years of caregiving, Sheldon has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at Half-Way Tree Wellbeing Centre cost $25 each. Sheldon 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 Sheldon could afford. The therapist recommends 16 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Sheldon, 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 $500 goes: • 16 therapy sessions: $420 • Psychiatric assessment: $50 • Workbook and resources: $30 Glad we found this place.

      Sure. The biggest one is 16 therapy sessions, $420. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Thanks for asking.
