Therapy fund for Marilyn: 12 sessions with a licensed counselor
Marilyn is working through the loss of my brother and needs help paying for 12 sessions with a licensed counselor.
🇬🇧 England, United Kingdom1,473 views
After the loss of my brother, Marilyn has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at the Nottingham Counselling Collective cost $80 each.
Marilyn 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 Marilyn 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 Marilyn, 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: $155
• Workbook and resources: $45
Glad we found this place.

Wishing you peace. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Put this on a community board in San Francisco this morning. Thinking of Nottingham
Thinking of you and your family. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Philadelphia so I could bring a meal.
Sending good thoughts, Oliver. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Take care.
Wishing you the best. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 5 people at work. Thinking of Nottingham.
