Therapy fund for Wilma: 16 sessions with a licensed counselor
After a difficult divorce, Wilma has been on a waiting list for months - private therapy is the only option, and the cost is $1,900.

After a difficult divorce, Wilma has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at Amsterdam Wellbeing Centre cost $90 each.
Wilma has been honest with her employer and taken some time off, but can't keep going without support.
Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions Wilma could afford. The therapist recommends 16 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference.
Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Wilma, 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 $1,900 goes:
• 16 therapy sessions: $1,600
• Psychiatric assessment: $270
• Workbook and resources: $30
If you're reading this, thank you.

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Amsterdam
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Wilma?
Thank you. If you're in Amsterdam I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Ask me anything else.
gave what I could, wish it was more. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Amsterdam.
Good luck, Ellen. Get well soon. Wish I lived closer to Dublin so I could bring a meal.
Wishing you the best. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Surabaya.
