After the death of both parents, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at Paris Wellbeing Centre cost $75 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 $1,900 goes: โ€ข 10 therapy sessions: $1,700 โ€ข Psychiatric assessment: $190 โ€ข Workbook and resources: $10 With deep gratitude, Odette

            best of luck. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out.
