Therapy fund for Karim: 24 sessions with a licensed counselor
A course of trauma-focused CBT for Karim could change everything; the cost is $850.

After military deployment, Karim has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at the Medina Counselling Collective cost $50 each.
Karim 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 Karim could afford. The therapist recommends 24 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference.
Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Karim, 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 $850 goes:
• 24 therapy sessions: $630
• Psychiatric assessment: $195
• Workbook and resources: $25
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Sending strength. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 33 people at work. Take care.
Rooting for you. Looking forward to the next update. Put this on a community board in Houston this morning. All the best.
Thinking of you and your family, Hussein. Your post was clear and honest. After 12 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
So sorry you're going through this, Hussein. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Take care.
