Isabel's path to healing - trauma-focused CBT in Iztapalapa
Isabel is working through a long hospital stay and needs help paying for 24 sessions with a licensed counselor.
🇲🇽 Iztapalapa, Ciudad de México, Mexico900 views
After a long hospital stay, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Iztapalapa cost $20 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.
Funds cover only therapy sessions, and I'll share progress updates (not private details) if I'm comfortable.
Where the $850 goes:
• 24 therapy sessions: $760
• Psychiatric assessment: $75
• Workbook and resources: $15
Thank you for reading my story.

rooting for you. Hope this works out for you. After 27 years in farming I know how hard it is to ask for anything.
Stay strong, Isabel. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Córdoba.
This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Glasgow this morning. Love from Glasgow
Thinking of you and your family. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Pattaya.
Wishing you the best, Isabel. Your post was clear and honest. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day!
