Sérgio's path to healing - EMDR therapy in Guarulhos
Sérgio is working through a difficult divorce and needs help paying for 10 sessions with a licensed counselor.
🇧🇷 Brazil2,052 views
After a difficult divorce, Sérgio has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Guarulhos cost $25 each.
Sérgio 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 Sérgio 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 Sérgio, 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 $550 goes:
• 10 therapy sessions: $460
• Psychiatric assessment: $60
• Workbook and resources: $30
Every share and every dollar helps.

Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Guarulhos.

Sending strength. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I'll check back for the next update. Take care
Take care, Camila. Hope the doctors have good news. Wish I lived closer to Fresno so I could bring a meal.
