After military deployment, Paolo has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to family counseling, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at Quezon City Wellbeing Centre cost $20 each.
Paolo 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 Paolo 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 Paolo, 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 $350 goes:
• 20 therapy sessions: $260
• Psychiatric assessment: $60
• Workbook and resources: $30
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Thinking of you and your family, Kristine. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Birmingham.
Rooting for you. Wishing Paolo a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Thinking of Quezon City!
Hope things get better soon, Kristine. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Pune
You're not alone. Hope this works out for you. We're a small family in Fort Worth but we're thinking of you!
