After the miscarriage, Yasmin has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at the San Jose Counselling Collective cost $130 each. Yasmin 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 Yasmin could afford. The therapist recommends 20 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Yasmin, 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 $2,300 goes: • 20 therapy sessions: $1,900 • Psychiatric assessment: $340 • Workbook and resources: $60 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Rasha

  • Best of luck, Rasha. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of San Jose.
