After the loss of my brother, Christopher has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at the Leicester Counselling Collective cost $105 each. Christopher has been honest with his employer and taken some time off, but can't keep going without support. Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions Christopher could afford. The therapist recommends 12 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Christopher, and we're 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 $1,450 goes: • 12 therapy sessions: $1,250 • Psychiatric assessment: $160 • Workbook and resources: $40 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
