Cali

After a house fire, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Cali cost $35 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 12 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. The money will be paid directly to the counselor's practice, with a session-by-session record. Where the $350 goes: • 12 therapy sessions: $280 • Psychiatric assessment: $45 • Workbook and resources: $25 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Ana

Updates from Ana

Thank you all. We're at 88% now ($308). I'm honestly stunned. we've booked the dates and paid the deposit.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($308 in total) I made the first payment toward workbook and resources. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Quick update: $183 raised so far (52%). the first invoice got paid this week. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
