Pelotas
After a house fire, Wellington has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to a structured recovery program, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Pelotas cost $30 each. Wellington 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 Wellington 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 Wellington, and we're 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 $405 goes: • 10 therapy sessions: $320 • Psychiatric assessment: $80 • Workbook and resources: $5 Thanks for reading all this.

Updates from Larissa

  1. We're at 47% thanks to 3 of you. I made the first payment toward psychiatric assessment. More news soon.

  2. Wanted to say thank you properly. 40% funded and I met with the practice and confirmed the amounts.

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($75 in total) the plan for 10 therapy sessions is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
