After a long hospital stay, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Kilkenny cost $120 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 10 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 $1,150 goes:
• 10 therapy sessions: $1,000
• Psychiatric assessment: $125
• Workbook and resources: $25
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Sending love, Aoife. Hope this works out for you. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
wishing you peace, Aoife. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick.
Thinking of you, Aoife. Hope you get there. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care!
