Help Tiago afford 12 counseling sessions
Tiago is working through burnout at work and needs help paying for 12 sessions with a licensed counselor.

After burnout at work, Tiago 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 a private practice in Petrópolis cost $25 each.
Tiago 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 Tiago could afford. The therapist recommends 12 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference.
Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Tiago, and we're 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 $800 goes:
• 12 therapy sessions: $690
• Psychiatric assessment: $100
• Workbook and resources: $10
Thanks for being kind about this.

So sorry you're going through this, Edson. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Thinking of you. Get well soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
thinking of you. Get well soon. I hope September is when things finally get easier. Love from Bogotá.
Thanks for sharing this. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Petrópolis.
Shared it with a few friends. Love from Barranquilla!
