Mental health support for Marcel after years of caregiving

Marcel is working through years of caregiving and needs help paying for 24 sessions with a licensed counselor.

After years of caregiving, Marcel has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to family counseling, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Haarlem cost $55 each. Marcel 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 Marcel 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 Marcel, 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 $1,400 goes: • 24 therapy sessions: $1,050 • Psychiatric assessment: $320 • Workbook and resources: $30 Thank you so much.

    this could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Haarlem.

          Thinking of you, Willem. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. We're a small family in Pune but we're thinking of you

            wishing you peace, Willem. Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.
