After years of caregiving, Januka has been on a waiting list for months - private therapy is the only option, and the cost is $400.

After years of caregiving, Januka 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 a private practice in Pokhara cost $10 each.
Januka 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 Januka 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 Januka, 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 $400 goes:
• 20 therapy sessions: $310
• Psychiatric assessment: $60
• Workbook and resources: $30
Thanks for being kind about this.

Rooting for you, Radha. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Thinking of Pokhara.
I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Johannesburg but we're thinking of you. All the best.
Take care, Radha. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. After 22 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless
