After a difficult divorce, Maria has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to a structured recovery program, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at the Rome Counselling Collective cost $60 each. Maria 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 Maria 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 Maria, and we're 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 $1,900 goes: • 10 therapy sessions: $1,700 • Psychiatric assessment: $185 • Workbook and resources: $15 Thanks for reading all this. - Alberto

Updates from Alberto

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($50 in total) I made the first payment toward psychiatric assessment. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Quick update: $100 raised so far (5%). the plan for workbook and resources is now scheduled. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  3. 13% there. the first invoice got paid this week. Thank you.
