Iztapalapa
After a difficult divorce, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at Iztapalapa Wellbeing Centre cost $25 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 20 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. Funds cover only therapy sessions, and I'll share progress updates (not private details) if I'm comfortable. Where the $805 goes: • 20 therapy sessions: $730 • Psychiatric assessment: $70 • Workbook and resources: $5 Thank you so much. - Inés

      Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about 20 therapy sessions, advice is welcome too. Appreciate you taking the time.

  • Sending strength. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My husband and I read this together. God bless

    • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Inés.

        20 therapy sessions is $730 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Fair thing to want to know.

    • Get well soon. Greetings from Cleveland

      • Hope things get better soon, Inés. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
