Mental health support for Álvaro after military deployment

A course of weekly cognitive behavioral therapy for Álvaro could change everything; the cost is $600.

Ciudad de México
After military deployment, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Ciudad de México cost $30 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 $600 goes: • 20 therapy sessions: $530 • Psychiatric assessment: $55 • Workbook and resources: $15 Thank you so much. - Álvaro
