After a violent robbery, Vincent has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to a structured recovery program, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at the Saint-Denis Counselling Collective cost $85 each. Vincent 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 Vincent could afford. The therapist recommends 24 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Vincent, 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 $1,850 goes: • 24 therapy sessions: $1,650 • Psychiatric assessment: $160 • Workbook and resources: $40 I hope life is good to you.

    thanks for sharing this, Julien. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to Gujranwala so I could bring a meal

    • is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Vincent.

      • Julien DurandOwnerAnswer

        It's all in the list in the story. 24 therapy sessions is the big one at $1,650, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Fair thing to want to know.

    • shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Parramatta donated after I showed her your page. God bless.

      • Thinking of you and your family. Gave what I could, wish it was more. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best.

        • Sending love, Julien. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'll check back for the next update. All the best.
