A course of weekly cognitive behavioral therapy for Ricardo could change everything; the cost is $415.

After the miscarriage, Ricardo has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at Duque de Caxias Wellbeing Centre cost $30 each.
Ricardo 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 Ricardo could afford. The therapist recommends 12 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference.
Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Ricardo, 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 $415 goes:
• 12 therapy sessions: $370
• Psychiatric assessment: $40
• Workbook and resources: $5
Thanks for being kind about this.
