After a house fire, Zahid has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at the Dhaka Counselling Collective cost $15 each.
Zahid 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 Zahid 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 Zahid, 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 $250 goes:
• 10 therapy sessions: $185
• Psychiatric assessment: $30
• Workbook and resources: $35
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

keep going. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings
Sending strength. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Mysuru this morning
Praying for you, Ishrat. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

Rooting for you, Ishrat. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Blessings
