Therapy fund for Kiara: 10 sessions with a licensed counselor
A course of trauma-focused CBT for Kiara could change everything; the cost is $2,050.
🇦🇺 Sydney, New South Wales, Australia757 views
After the loss of my brother, Kiara has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Sydney cost $70 each.
Kiara 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 Kiara could afford. The therapist recommends 10 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference.
Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Kiara, 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:
• 10 therapy sessions: $1,900
• Psychiatric assessment: $130
• Workbook and resources: $20
Every share and every dollar helps.

thinking of you and your family. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't give up.
Hope things get better soon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend
Thanks for sharing this, Usha. Hope you get there. Sent it to 32 people at work. Thinking of Sydney.
Thinking of you and your family. Hope the doctors have good news. After 11 years in hospitality I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Greetings from Fort Worth.
Hope it all works out. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it!
