After the loss of my brother, Gabriella has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at Sydney Wellbeing Centre cost $75 each. Gabriella has been honest with her employer and taken some time off, but can't keep going without support. Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions Gabriella could afford. The therapist recommends 20 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Gabriella, and we're 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 $1,350 goes: • 20 therapy sessions: $1,000 • Psychiatric assessment: $330 • Workbook and resources: $20 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

                    • Wishing you peace. Your post was clear and honest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Sydney.
