Leeds
After a violent robbery, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to a structured recovery program, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at Leeds Wellbeing Centre cost $80 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 12 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 $1,100 goes: • 12 therapy sessions: $820 • Psychiatric assessment: $240 • Workbook and resources: $40 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Ruth
