After the miscarriage, Ruby has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at the Birmingham Counselling Collective cost $85 each. Ruby 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 Ruby 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 Ruby, 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 $1,550 goes: โ€ข 10 therapy sessions: $1,350 โ€ข Psychiatric assessment: $155 โ€ข Workbook and resources: $45 Thanks for being kind about this.

      is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Ruby

      • Caleb J. MunozOwnerAnswer

        Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. 10 therapy sessions comes first ($1,350) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Happy to explain more.

    • Thanks for sharing this, Caleb. I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings

      • Praying for you. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.
