Olivia's path to healing - family counseling in Québec
A course of family counseling for Olivia could change everything; the cost is $2,600.
🇨🇦 Québec, Quebec, Canada1,671 views
After burnout at work, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to family counseling, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at Québec Wellbeing Centre cost $105 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 16 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 $2,600 goes:
• 16 therapy sessions: $2,350
• Psychiatric assessment: $210
• Workbook and resources: $40
Thanks for reading all this.
Updates from Olivia
Small update. $261 so far, I met with the practice and confirmed the amounts.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($251 in total) the plan for 16 therapy sessions is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
We're at 9% thanks to 2 of you. I met with the practice and confirmed the amounts. More news soon. - Olivia

hang in there. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Cali!
Take care, Olivia. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Please keep us posted. Love from Nairobi
Rooting for you. I hope things turn around soon. My husband and I read this together. Blessings.
take care, Olivia. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
I hope things turn around soon. My neighbor in Novosibirsk donated after I showed her your page.
Good luck, Olivia. Hope the doctors have good news. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
