After burnout at work, 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 8 months, and private sessions at the Tokyo Counselling Collective cost $85 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 10 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 $1,550 goes: • 10 therapy sessions: $1,350 • Psychiatric assessment: $150 • Workbook and resources: $50 Thank you for reading my story.

      It's all in the list in the story. 10 therapy sessions is the big one at $1,350, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Thanks for asking.

      Thinking of you. Looking forward to the next update. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Tokyo.
