After a difficult divorce, 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 São Paulo Counselling Collective cost $35 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 $555 goes:
• 12 therapy sessions: $430
• Psychiatric assessment: $120
• Workbook and resources: $5
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

What exactly is the $555 for?
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. 12 therapy sessions is the biggest at $430. Good question.
Rooting for you. Hope the doctors have good news. My neighbor in Córdoba donated after I showed her your page!

I hope things turn around soon. Thinking of São Paulo.
Sending love. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Dublin.
Get well soon. Put this on a community board in Christchurch this morning.
Thinking of you and your family. Hope you get there. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of São Paulo.
