Mental health support for Malsha after a car accident

After a car accident, Malsha has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Colombo cost $20 each. Malsha 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 Malsha could afford. The therapist recommends 24 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Malsha, 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 $300 goes: • 24 therapy sessions: $210 • Psychiatric assessment: $55 • Workbook and resources: $35 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Chamara
