After years of caregiving, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at the Paris Counselling Collective cost $80 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 10 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 $1,850 goes:
• 10 therapy sessions: $1,600
• Psychiatric assessment: $210
• Workbook and resources: $40
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Laredo
looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Jakarta donated after I showed her your page. Take care
Wishing Gilles a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
Wishing you the best, Gilles. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Thinking of you and your family, Gilles. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Paris
Sending good thoughts. Shared this with my family. Please keep us posted. Blessings

Wishing you the best, Gilles. Get well soon. Wish I lived closer to Fort Portal so I could bring a meal
