After a car accident, Johanna has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at Berlin Wellbeing Centre cost $65 each. Johanna has been honest with her employer and taken some time off, but can't keep going without support. Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions Johanna could afford. The therapist recommends 12 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Johanna, 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 $1,950 goes: • 12 therapy sessions: $1,750 • Psychiatric assessment: $160 • Workbook and resources: $40 If you're reading this, thank you. - Charlotte

      • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Johanna

        • Charlotte EngelOwnerAnswer

          It's all in the list in the story. 12 therapy sessions is the big one at $1,750, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Appreciate you taking the time.

        Thanks for sharing this, Charlotte. Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Leeds

        • Is there anything that isn't money that would help Johanna?

          • Charlotte EngelOwnerAnswer

            Thank you. If you're in Berlin I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.

        • Best of luck, Charlotte. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Sent it to 11 people at work.

          • Rooting for you, Charlotte. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Belo Horizonte

            • take care. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Bandung donated after I showed her your page.

              • Keep going, Charlotte. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.

                • Hope it all works out. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.

                  • so sorry you're going through this, Charlotte. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out.

                    • Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't give up. Greetings from Bristol
