After a long hospital stay, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to family counseling, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Taguig cost $15 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 12 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 $350 goes:
• 12 therapy sessions: $270
• Psychiatric assessment: $60
• Workbook and resources: $20
Thanks for being kind about this.

Hope it all works out. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
Sending love, Josefina. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings.
Good luck. Your post was clear and honest. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best
take care. Hope you get there. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Blessings.
Rooting for you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. It's not much but it's yours. All the best.
Rooting for you, Josefina. Get well soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care
So sorry you're going through this, Josefina. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Thinking of Taguig
You're not alone, Josefina. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Blessings.
sending strength, Josefina. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Wish I lived closer to Dublin so I could bring a meal.
