After years of caregiving, Bilal has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at Saint-Denis Wellbeing Centre cost $75 each. Bilal 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 Bilal could afford. The therapist recommends 16 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Bilal, 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 $1,700 goes: • 16 therapy sessions: $1,500 • Psychiatric assessment: $160 • Workbook and resources: $40 Thank you for reading my story.

    Hope the doctors have good news. After 11 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

    • Sophie Gibson

      Hope things get better soon. I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Fort Worth but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Saint-Denis
