Maud's path to healing - a structured recovery program in Utrecht

Maud is working through a violent robbery and needs help paying for 20 sessions with a licensed counselor.

Utrecht
After a violent robbery, Maud has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to a structured recovery program, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at the Utrecht Counselling Collective cost $115 each. Maud 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 Maud could afford. The therapist recommends 20 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Maud, 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 $2,150 goes: • 20 therapy sessions: $1,850 • Psychiatric assessment: $250 • Workbook and resources: $50 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Isa

Updates from Isa

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($1,173 in total) the plan for 20 therapy sessions is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Wanted to say thank you properly. 41% funded and I made the first payment toward workbook and resources.

  3. Small update. $360 so far, the first invoice got paid this week. - Isa

          Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Maud.

          • Isa Petra PetersOwnerAnswer

            20 therapy sessions is $1,850 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Fair thing to want to know.

        • Bình Anh Tieu

          Rooting for you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Da Nang donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
