After a violent robbery, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to a structured recovery program, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at Latina Wellbeing Centre cost $65 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 10 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 $1,550 goes:
• 10 therapy sessions: $1,350
• Psychiatric assessment: $155
• Workbook and resources: $45
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Giovanna?
Thank you. If you're in Latina I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Let me know if you want more detail.
Wishing Giovanna a smooth procedure and a full recovery
