After years of caregiving, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to a structured recovery program, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at New Delhi Wellbeing Centre cost $15 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 24 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 $350 goes: • 24 therapy sessions: $280 • Psychiatric assessment: $65 • Workbook and resources: $5 I hope life is good to you. - Nirali

Updates from Nirali

  1. Quick update: $122 raised so far (35%). I made the first payment toward psychiatric assessment. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($5 in total) I met with the practice and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

    is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Nirali

    • Nirali S. KelkarOwnerAnswer

      Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. 24 therapy sessions comes first ($280) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. I'll keep the page updated.
