Karanja's path to healing - EMDR therapy in Kasarani

A course of EMDR therapy for Karanja could change everything; the cost is $300.

Kasarani
After the death of both parents, Karanja has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at Kasarani Wellbeing Centre cost $15 each. Karanja has been honest with his employer and taken some time off, but can't keep going without support. Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions Karanja could afford. The therapist recommends 10 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Karanja, 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 $300 goes: • 10 therapy sessions: $220 • Psychiatric assessment: $50 • Workbook and resources: $30 Thank you for reading my story.

      Thinking of you and your family. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Dar es Salaam.
