Beatrix's path to healing - trauma-focused CBT in Johannesburg
Beatrix is working through military deployment and needs help paying for 20 sessions with a licensed counselor.

After military deployment, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Johannesburg cost $30 each.
I have been honest with my employer and taken some time off, but I can't keep going without support.
Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions I could afford. My therapist recommends 20 weekly sessions, and I know that consistent help will make the difference.
Asking for help with this has been the hardest part, and I'm 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 $550 goes:
• 20 therapy sessions: $440
• Psychiatric assessment: $90
• Workbook and resources: $20
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Beatrix.
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. 20 therapy sessions comes first ($440) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid.
Sending strength. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Love from Dhaka.
Good luck, Beatrix. Hope the doctors have good news. Blessings.
