After burnout at work, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at the Entebbe Counselling Collective cost $15 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 10 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 $350 goes: • 10 therapy sessions: $300 • Psychiatric assessment: $35 • Workbook and resources: $15 I hope life is good to you. - Samuel

  • everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Syracuse

    • Hope it all works out, Samuel. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.

        • Thinking of you. This could happen to any of us. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Entebbe.

          • Wishing you peace. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in București donated after I showed her your page. Love from București
