Mental health support for Eamon after a house fire
A course of EMDR therapy for Eamon could change everything; the cost is $1,150.
🇮🇪 Kilkenny, Leinster, Ireland2,885 views
After a house fire, 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 the Kilkenny Counselling Collective cost $80 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 $1,150 goes:
• 12 therapy sessions: $950
• Psychiatric assessment: $145
• Workbook and resources: $55
Thanks for being kind about this.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Eamon?
Thank you. If you're in Kilkenny I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Happy to explain more.
So sorry you're going through this, Eamon. Shared this with my family. Take care.
Thinking of you and your family, Eamon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together.
Wishing you the best, Eamon. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Take care.
thinking of you and your family, Eamon. This could happen to any of us. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.
Take care. Your post was clear and honest. Love from Naples.
