Liam's path to healing - EMDR therapy in Ottawa
Liam is working through the death of both parents and needs help paying for 10 sessions with a licensed counselor.
Anywhere in the world2,100 views
After the death of both parents, Liam has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at Ottawa Wellbeing Centre cost $100 each.
Liam 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 Liam could afford. The therapist recommends 10 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference.
Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Liam, 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 $2,000 goes:
• 10 therapy sessions: $1,500
• Psychiatric assessment: $430
• Workbook and resources: $70
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Thanks for sharing this, Jameson. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Leeds.
Wishing you peace, Jameson. This could happen to any of us. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Nagpur.
Sending good thoughts, Jameson. Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care.
thinking of you and your family, Jameson. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
Thinking of you and your family, Jameson. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Ottawa
stay strong. Shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
it takes guts to ask. Well done. After 17 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
you're not alone. Wishing Liam a smooth procedure and a full recovery. All the best.
Stay strong. Hope this works out for you. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best.
