Mental health support for Yaw after military deployment

After military deployment, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 9 months, and private sessions at Accra Wellbeing Centre cost $15 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 12 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.
The money will be paid directly to the counselor's practice, with a session-by-session record.
Where the $450 goes:
• 12 therapy sessions: $380
• Psychiatric assessment: $60
• Workbook and resources: $10
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Accra.
Praying for you, Yaw. Wishing Yaw a smooth procedure and a full recovery. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best.
