Rashidi's path to healing - weekly cognitive behavioral therapy in Naivasha
A course of weekly cognitive behavioral therapy for Rashidi could change everything; the cost is $300.
🇰🇪 Naivasha, Nakuru, Kenya1,543 views
After the death of both parents, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Naivasha cost $20 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 16 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:
• 16 therapy sessions: $210
• Psychiatric assessment: $55
• Workbook and resources: $35
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Hang in there, Rashidi. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.
sending love, Rashidi. Get well soon. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Duque de Caxias
