After military deployment, Madhu has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Mumbai cost $10 each. Madhu has been honest with her employer and taken some time off, but can't keep going without support. Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions Madhu could afford. The therapist recommends 16 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Madhu, 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 $500 goes: • 16 therapy sessions: $410 • Psychiatric assessment: $60 • Workbook and resources: $30 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Jyoti
