After a violent robbery, Reem has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to a structured recovery program, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at the Giza Counselling Collective cost $10 each.
Reem 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 Reem could afford. The therapist recommends 16 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference.
Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Reem, 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 $400 goes:
• 16 therapy sessions: $340
• Psychiatric assessment: $45
• Workbook and resources: $15
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Sending good thoughts, Zainab. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Wish I lived closer to San Diego so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Giza.
rooting for you, Zainab. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick
Wishing you peace, Zainab. This could happen to any of us. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care
hope this works out for you. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Reem?
Thank you. If you're in Giza I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.
stay strong, Zainab. Gave what I could, wish it was more. All the best
So sorry you're going through this. Your post was clear and honest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings
wishing Reem a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
