After the death of both parents, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at Surrey Wellbeing Centre cost $75 each.
I have been honest with my employer and taken some time off, but I can't keep going without support.
Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions I could afford. My therapist recommends 20 weekly sessions, and I know that consistent help will make the difference.
Asking for help with this has been the hardest part, and I'm 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 $1,500 goes:
• 20 therapy sessions: $1,250
• Psychiatric assessment: $210
• Workbook and resources: $40

sending good thoughts. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Surrey.
Sending love, Addison. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest.
You're not alone, Addison. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.
