After the death of both parents, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Albany cost $140 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 20 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 $2,450 goes: • 20 therapy sessions: $2,200 • Psychiatric assessment: $240 • Workbook and resources: $10 Thank you so much. - Janet

      So sorry you're going through this, Janet. Get well soon. After 19 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

      • Brigitte Simone Martin

        Sending good thoughts, Janet. Wishing Janet a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

        • Bambang Slamet Hidayat

          thinking of you, Janet. Hope you get there. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
