Nkechi's path to healing - trauma-focused CBT in Bonny
After bullying at school, Nkechi has been on a waiting list for months - private therapy is the only option, and the cost is $360.

After bullying at school, 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 a private practice in Bonny cost $10 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 20 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 $360 goes:
• 20 therapy sessions: $320
• Psychiatric assessment: $35
• Workbook and resources: $5
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Good news. Because of your gifts ($75 in total) I met with the practice and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

Rooting for you. This could happen to any of us. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
Wishing you the best. Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Saint Petersburg
