After the loss of my brother, Sita has been on a waiting list for months - private therapy is the only option, and the cost is $300.

After the loss of my brother, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to family counseling, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at the Kathmandu Counselling Collective cost $10 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 12 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 $300 goes: • 12 therapy sessions: $240 • Psychiatric assessment: $25 • Workbook and resources: $35 Thanks for being kind about this.

Updates from Sita

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($162 in total) the plan for workbook and resources is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Update from Kathmandu: we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. We're at 68% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us. - Sita

  3. Small update. $32 so far, I made the first payment toward 12 therapy sessions.
