Riku's path to healing - trauma-focused CBT in Tokyo
A course of trauma-focused CBT for Riku could change everything; the cost is $900.
🇯🇵 Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan2,105 views
After a difficult divorce, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Tokyo cost $60 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 $900 goes:
• 12 therapy sessions: $720
• Psychiatric assessment: $160
• Workbook and resources: $20
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Riku.
Sure. The biggest one is 12 therapy sessions, $720. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Thanks for looking so closely.
so sorry you're going through this, Riku. Wishing Riku a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Take care.
Thanks for sharing this, Riku. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. God bless.
you're not alone, Riku. Get well soon. My neighbor in Mekelle donated after I showed her your page.
