Henry is working through a difficult divorce and needs help paying for 24 sessions with a licensed counselor.
🇺🇸 United States2,123 views
After a difficult divorce, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at the Oakland Counselling Collective cost $125 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.
The money will be paid directly to the counselor's practice, with a session-by-session record.
Where the $1,500 goes:
• 24 therapy sessions: $1,100
• Psychiatric assessment: $380
• Workbook and resources: $20
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Good luck. Wishing Henry a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My neighbor in Bucaramanga donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
Wishing you the best, Henry. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
Hope things get better soon. I hope things turn around soon. Please keep us posted. Take care.
thanks for sharing this. Shared this with my family. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
Wishing you peace, Henry. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Enugu but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Oakland.
