After a violent robbery, Isaac has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at Wudil Wellbeing Centre cost $20 each. Isaac 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 Isaac 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 Isaac, 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 $310 goes: • 12 therapy sessions: $270 • Psychiatric assessment: $35 • Workbook and resources: $5 Thanks for being kind about this.

    • Praying for you, Uchenna. Wishing Isaac a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.

        • Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Wudil
