Therapy fund for Ximena: 16 sessions with a licensed counselor
After the loss of my brother, Ximena has been on a waiting list for months - private therapy is the only option, and the cost is $2,600.
🇬🇧 Aberdeen, Scotland, United Kingdom3,546 views
After the loss of my brother, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to a structured recovery program, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Aberdeen cost $105 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.
The money will be paid directly to the counselor's practice, with a session-by-session record.
Where the $2,600 goes:
• 16 therapy sessions: $2,200
• Psychiatric assessment: $330
• Workbook and resources: $70
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
Updates from Ximena
Thank you all. We're at 28% now ($718). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for workbook and resources is now scheduled.
