Poitiers
After a difficult divorce, Valérie has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Poitiers cost $70 each. Valérie 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 Valérie 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 Valérie, 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 $1,850 goes: • 24 therapy sessions: $1,650 • Psychiatric assessment: $160 • Workbook and resources: $40 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

    Keep going, Romane. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.
