After the loss of my brother, Jabu has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at Pretoria Wellbeing Centre cost $25 each. Jabu 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 Jabu could afford. The therapist recommends 16 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Jabu, and we're 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 $355 goes: • 16 therapy sessions: $300 • Psychiatric assessment: $50 • Workbook and resources: $5 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Unathi
