Chicago
After a car accident, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at the Chicago Counselling Collective cost $100 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 10 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. The money will be paid directly to the counselor's practice, with a session-by-session record. Where the $2,350 goes: • 10 therapy sessions: $2,050 • Psychiatric assessment: $240 • Workbook and resources: $60 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Riley

  • Sending love, Riley. This could happen to any of us.

    • Hang in there, Riley. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Blessings.

      • Rooting for you, Riley. Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Chicago.

        • Sending good thoughts. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Take care!
