After a difficult divorce, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at the Hobart Counselling Collective cost $65 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. Funds cover only therapy sessions, and I'll share progress updates (not private details) if I'm comfortable. Where the $1,950 goes: • 20 therapy sessions: $1,750 • Psychiatric assessment: $170 • Workbook and resources: $30 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

  • Shared it with a few friends. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best!

    • 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. Love from Kasarani.

      • keep going. Hope the doctors have good news. Wish I lived closer to Augsburg so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Timișoara

            • Thinking of you and your family. Hope this works out for you. I hope January is when things finally get easier. Love from Albany.

              • Take care, Maryam. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust

                  Keep going. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings
