Therapy fund for Gustav: 20 sessions with a licensed counselor
A course of trauma-focused CBT for Gustav could change everything; the cost is $2,050.
🇸🇪 Gothenburg, Västra Götaland, Sweden3,937 views
After burnout at work, Gustav has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at Gothenburg Wellbeing Centre cost $115 each.
Gustav 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 Gustav 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 Gustav, 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 $2,050 goes:
• 20 therapy sessions: $1,650
• Psychiatric assessment: $360
• Workbook and resources: $40
Thanks for reading all this.

can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Gothenburg
Thank you. If you're in Gothenburg I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great.
Best of luck. Looking forward to the next update. Sent it to 40 people at work. Love from Houston.

So sorry you're going through this. Looking forward to the next update. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care.
