After military deployment, Keiko has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at the Kawasaki Counselling Collective cost $75 each. Keiko has been honest with her employer and taken some time off, but can't keep going without support. Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions Keiko could afford. The therapist recommends 24 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Keiko, and we're grateful for your kindness without judgment. The money will be paid directly to the counselor's practice, with a session-by-session record. Where the $1,850 goes: • 24 therapy sessions: $1,700 • Psychiatric assessment: $140 • Workbook and resources: $10 If you're reading this, thank you. - Takeshi

                    Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. 24 therapy sessions comes first ($1,700) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Ask me anything else.

                • Take care, Takeshi. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best

                  • You're not alone, Takeshi. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Take care.

                    • Thanks for sharing this, Takeshi. Wishing Keiko a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless

                      • Sending strength, Takeshi. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Kawasaki.

                        • Hope it all works out, Takeshi. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Kawasaki.

                          • Hang in there, Takeshi. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My neighbor in New York donated after I showed her your page. Blessings

                            • Wishing you the best. I hope things turn around soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best.

                              • Wishing you the best, Takeshi. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'll check back for the next update. Thinking of Kawasaki!
