After a house fire, Aaliyah has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to family counseling, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at Austin Wellbeing Centre cost $105 each.
Aaliyah 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 Aaliyah could afford. The therapist recommends 24 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference.
Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Aaliyah, 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 $1,250 goes:
• 24 therapy sessions: $950
• Psychiatric assessment: $250
• Workbook and resources: $50
I hope life is good to you.
