Odhiambo's path to healing - a structured recovery program in Kakamega
Odhiambo is working through years of caregiving and needs help paying for 12 sessions with a licensed counselor.

After years of caregiving, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to a structured recovery program, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Kakamega 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 $300 goes:
• 12 therapy sessions: $220
• Psychiatric assessment: $50
• Workbook and resources: $30
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Odhiambo
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. 12 therapy sessions comes first ($220) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks, that means a lot.
Take care. Hope the doctors have good news. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Mecca.
