After the death of both parents, Maverick has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Albany cost $110 each. Maverick 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 Maverick 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 Maverick, 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 $1,600 goes: โ€ข 20 therapy sessions: $1,250 โ€ข Psychiatric assessment: $340 โ€ข Workbook and resources: $10 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Updates from Jack

  1. 45% there. I met with the practice and confirmed the amounts. Thank you.

  2. We're at 26% thanks to 8 of you. the first invoice got paid this week. More news soon.

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($300 in total) I made the first payment toward psychiatric assessment. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
