After bullying at school, Sadie has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to family counseling, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Kansas City cost $65 each. Sadie has been honest with her employer and taken some time off, but can't keep going without support. Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions Sadie could afford. The therapist recommends 10 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Sadie, 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 $2,550 goes: • 10 therapy sessions: $2,050 • Psychiatric assessment: $450 • Workbook and resources: $50 I hope life is good to you.

  • is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Sadie!

    • Joyce CoxOwnerAnswerAddress verified

      10 therapy sessions is $2,050 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. I'll keep the page updated.

  • Take care. Hope the doctors have good news. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best.

    • Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Kansas City!

        Thank you. If you're in Kansas City I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Happy to explain more.

        Thinking of you and your family, Joyce. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Incheon.
