After the miscarriage, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Haarlem cost $100 each. I have been honest with my employer and taken some time off, but I can't keep going without support. Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions I could afford. My therapist recommends 16 weekly sessions, and I know that consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part, and I'm 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 $1,850 goes: • 16 therapy sessions: $1,650 • Psychiatric assessment: $160 • Workbook and resources: $40 Glad we found this place.

    Thinking of you, Roos. Shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in Toronto but we're thinking of you. Love from Toronto.
