Chioma's path to healing - weekly cognitive behavioral therapy in Abuja
Chioma is working through bullying at school and needs help paying for 24 sessions with a licensed counselor.
🇳🇬 Abuja, Abuja FCT, Nigeria1,313 views
After bullying at school, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Abuja cost $20 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 24 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 $450 goes:
• 24 therapy sessions: $400
• Psychiatric assessment: $30
• Workbook and resources: $20
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Keep going. Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out.
wishing you the best, Chioma. Hope you get there. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care
wishing you the best, Chioma. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Sending love, Chioma. This could happen to any of us. All the best
Good luck, Chioma. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Abuja.
gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Abuja.
So sorry you're going through this, Chioma. Get well soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Abuja!
Sending love, Chioma. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Take care.
Best of luck, Chioma. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Abuja.
Rooting for you, Chioma. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings
Shared it with a few friends. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Hubballi.
