After a violent robbery, Yeshi has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Addis Ababa cost $10 each. Yeshi 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 Yeshi could afford. The therapist recommends 24 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference. Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Yeshi, 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 $250 goes: • 24 therapy sessions: $195 • Psychiatric assessment: $45 • Workbook and resources: $10 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

      • Hope it all works out. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust

        • Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Augusta so I could bring a meal. Take care!

          • Sending love, Fikru. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best.
