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 8 months, and private sessions at the Salvador Counselling Collective cost $40 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 16 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 $750 goes: • 16 therapy sessions: $650 • Psychiatric assessment: $65 • Workbook and resources: $35 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Isabela

  • Thinking of you, Isabela. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I hope January is when things finally get easier. Blessings.

    • So sorry you're going through this. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from Lahore.

      • I hope things turn around soon. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Nagpur.
