My Story

Please Help Me Find a Psychologist

Hello, and thank you for taking a moment to read my story.

My name is Sarah Natasha. I'm not usually the kind of person who asks for help — especially not like this. But I've reached a point where I know I need to be honest, both with myself and with others.

My doctors have advised me to seek professional psychological support. It's not something I came to lightly. I've been struggling for a while, quietly, and after speaking with my GP, the recommendation was clear: I need access to ongoing, professional help.

The NHS has been as supportive as it can be. But like so many people, I'm facing a waiting list that could stretch on for a very long time. I work part-time and I live on a low income. By the time I cover my essential living costs, there simply isn't anything left over.

Private psychology sessions cost £77 each. That's a lot of money when you're already stretched thin — and when you need those sessions regularly, it quickly becomes something I simply can't manage alone.

I've set up this GoFundMe not because I want to, but because I genuinely don't know what else to do. I'm not asking for luxury — I'm asking for access to care that my doctor says I need.

If you've ever been in a place where you needed support and couldn't get it, you'll understand what this feels like. If you haven't — I hope you never do.

Thank you for being here. It means more than you know.

— Sarah

The Reality

The Cost of Getting Better

per private psychology session

I work part-time and my income covers the basics: rent, bills, food. There is nothing left at the end of the month — and certainly not enough to fund the professional support my GP has recommended.

Private psychology sessions are the only realistic route for me right now. NHS waiting lists in my area are long, and my situation cannot wait indefinitely. This campaign exists because I want to get better — and because I cannot do it alone financially.

How You Can Help

Every Contribution Brings Me Closer

If you're able to contribute — even a small amount — it goes directly toward funding access to private psychological support. Each session gives me the opportunity to work through what I'm experiencing with someone who is qualified to help.

I can't promise a specific outcome, and I wouldn't want to. What I can say is that having consistent, professional support gives me the best possible chance of finding a way through this.

Your kindness, whatever form it takes, is genuinely appreciated.

A Note on Privacy

Why You Won't See My Face

Sharing something this personal is difficult, and I've made a deliberate choice to protect my privacy while doing so. I am not comfortable sharing my image publicly alongside a campaign about my mental health — and I hope you understand.

The images and videos on this website are visual representations of my story, created to convey its emotion while protecting my privacy. They are not actual photographs or recordings of me. My story, my circumstances, and my need for support are genuine. Thank you for respecting my privacy and taking the time to understand my journey.

Everything else — my story, my situation, my words — is real.

"Your kindness could help me take the next step."

Every contribution brings me closer to accessing the professional support I need.
