After burnout at work, Anwar has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to family counseling, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Cairo cost $15 each.
Anwar 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 Anwar could afford. The therapist recommends 20 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference.
Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Anwar, and we're 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 $310 goes:
• 20 therapy sessions: $270
• Psychiatric assessment: $35
• Workbook and resources: $5
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My neighbor in Durham donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
Thanks for sharing this, Hamza. Shared this with my family. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Leicester
Keep going, Hamza. Shared it with a few friends. Love from New York.
Hope things get better soon, Hamza. Get well soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care
