Why Pay-it-forward Therapy?

Children sometimes have to carry the heaviest burdens of life on their small shoulders. A traffic accident, a natural disaster, neglect or abuse, the sudden loss of a loved one… Such traumatic experiences can leave deep scars on a child's psyche. A child who has experienced trauma may show many symptoms such as insomnia, anxiety, anger outbursts, withdrawal, a decline in academic performance, or withdrawal from social relationships. If these symptoms are not addressed in a timely and correct manner, it can cause the child to experience lifelong psychological difficulties.

At this point, therapy support plays a vital role in helping the child regain a sense of security, make sense of the events they have experienced, and continue their healthy development.

How Does it Work?

With the "Suspended Therapy" program, we connect children who have experienced trauma and have limited financial resources with therapists who are experts in their field.

  • The foundation covers the costs of the therapy sessions the child needs.
  • The child's developmental process is regularly monitored, and guidance is provided to the family when necessary.
  • Thus, the child embarks on a long-term healing journey, not just short-term support.

Who Can Benefit?

To benefit from the "Pay-it-forward Therapy" program:

  • To be eligible, applicants must:

  • One of the parents or legal guardians accompanying the child must be actively involved in the process,
  • The family must be open to the information and educational support provided by the foundation.
