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 8 months, and private sessions at New Orleans Wellbeing Centre cost $90 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 $2,500 goes:
• 24 therapy sessions: $2,050
• Psychiatric assessment: $390
• Workbook and resources: $60
Every share and every dollar helps.

Hang in there. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of New Orleans.
So sorry you're going through this, Leah. Hope you get there. My neighbor in Yokohama donated after I showed her your page. Love from Yokohama!
Praying for you. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of New Orleans.
Hang in there, Leah. Shared it with a few friends.
Stay strong, Leah. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Best of luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of New Orleans.
Thinking of you. I hope things turn around soon. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Mississauga this morning. All the best.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 7 people at work.
Stay strong, Leah. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too
