Setagaya
After a long hospital stay, Hina has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to a structured recovery program, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Setagaya cost $85 each. Hina 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 Hina could afford. The therapist recommends 20 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Hina, 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 $2,200 goes: • 20 therapy sessions: $1,950 • Psychiatric assessment: $195 • Workbook and resources: $55 Every share and every dollar helps.

Updates from Mai

  1. Quick update: $1,179 raised so far (54%). I made the first payment toward workbook and resources. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  2. We're at 43% thanks to 16 of you. I met with the practice and confirmed the amounts. More news soon.

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($708 in total) the plan for psychiatric assessment is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
