After burnout at work, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at the Sacramento Counselling Collective cost $105 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 20 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.
Funds cover only therapy sessions, and I'll share progress updates (not private details) if I'm comfortable.
Where the $2,200 goes:
• 20 therapy sessions: $1,950
• Psychiatric assessment: $185
• Workbook and resources: $65
Glad we found this place.

Keep going. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Bellevue
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Arnel.
20 therapy sessions is $1,950 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. It helps to be asked.
Praying for you, Arnel. Wishing Arnel a smooth procedure and a full recovery. All the best!
Hope you get there. It's not much but it's yours. Love from Kakamega.
