Therapy fund for Joshua: 20 sessions with a licensed counselor
A course of weekly cognitive behavioral therapy for Joshua could change everything; the cost is $2,050.
🇺🇸 New York, United States2,170 views
After a house fire, Joshua has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at the Brooklyn Counselling Collective cost $130 each.
Joshua 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 Joshua 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 Joshua, 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: $1,800
• Psychiatric assessment: $230
• Workbook and resources: $20
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Take care. Shared this with my family. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.
You're not alone, Mercy. Your post was clear and honest. All the best.
Praying for you, Mercy. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Hope it all works out, Mercy. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side
So sorry you're going through this. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Córdoba.
