Hi, I’m India. I’m training to become a psychotherapist in the UK.

Therapy changed my life, and now I’m learning how to offer that same lifeline to others living with trauma, anxiety, depression, and self-doubt. I’ve completed my first year of training, and I’m determined to finish the next three.

My first year’s tuition was covered, but the funding I was promised for future years fell through. There’s no option to pause or defer; if I stop now, I’ll have to start again from the beginning, losing both my place and the tuition already paid.

I’m now self-funding while building my small business to stay afloat. I’ve cut every corner I can, sold my belongings 'til I'm down to the essentials, and the remaining costs of tuition, supervision, required therapy hours, and travel are beyond what I can manage alone.

If everyone reading this gave £20, I could fund the next stage of my training and begin offering affordable, trauma-informed therapy to people who can’t access support elsewhere.

Your contribution will directly fund:

Thank you for helping me stay in training, and for believing in the work I hope to do.
