After the miscarriage, Isaiah has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to family counseling, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at Albany Wellbeing Centre cost $90 each. Isaiah 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 Isaiah could afford. The therapist recommends 20 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Isaiah, 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 $1,700 goes: • 20 therapy sessions: $1,250 • Psychiatric assessment: $420 • Workbook and resources: $30 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

  • Keep going, Jack. Hope this works out for you. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings

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

        It's all in the list in the story. 20 therapy sessions is the big one at $1,250, I'll post a receipt when it's paid.

    • Keep going, Jack. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Blessings

      • Sending strength. Your post was clear and honest. God bless!

        • You're not alone. Wishing Isaiah a smooth procedure and a full recovery. All the best.

          • sending strength, Jack. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings.
