After the death of both parents, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to family counseling, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at the Juazeiro do Norte Counselling Collective cost $20 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 $650 goes: • 12 therapy sessions: $570 • Psychiatric assessment: $60 • Workbook and resources: $20 Thanks for reading all this. - Bruno

  • stay strong, Bruno. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.

    • Sending strength, Bruno. Shared this with my family. Sent it to 36 people at work. Greetings from Rochester.

      • I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless.
