After a long hospital stay, 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 Caruaru Wellbeing Centre 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 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. Funds cover only therapy sessions, and I'll share progress updates (not private details) if I'm comfortable. Where the $455 goes: • 12 therapy sessions: $350 • Psychiatric assessment: $100 • Workbook and resources: $5 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Bruna

  • I hope things turn around soon. After 15 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Caruaru.
