Therapy fund for Rey: 20 sessions with a licensed counselor
A course of EMDR therapy for Rey could change everything; the cost is $450.
🇵🇭 Caloocan, Metro Manila, Philippines1,362 views
After years of caregiving, Rey has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at Caloocan Wellbeing Centre cost $20 each.
Rey 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 Rey 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 Rey, 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 $450 goes:
• 20 therapy sessions: $360
• Psychiatric assessment: $55
• Workbook and resources: $35
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.
