After a difficult divorce, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Ciudad de México cost $20 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 $500 goes: • 12 therapy sessions: $330 • Psychiatric assessment: $130 • Workbook and resources: $40 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

  • Take care, Esperanza. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Wish I lived closer to Rajshahi so I could bring a meal. All the best!

    • Wishing you peace. This could happen to any of us. Love from Rochester.
