Mental health support for Manoel after military deployment
Manoel is working through military deployment and needs help paying for 16 sessions with a licensed counselor.

After military deployment, Manoel has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at Santos Wellbeing Centre cost $35 each.
Manoel 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 Manoel 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 Manoel, 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 $600 goes:
• 16 therapy sessions: $440
• Psychiatric assessment: $135
• Workbook and resources: $25
Thanks for reading all this.
