Tahmina's path to healing - EMDR therapy in London
Tahmina is working through bullying at school and needs help paying for 12 sessions with a licensed counselor.
🇬🇧 London, England, United Kingdom1,835 views
After bullying at school, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to EMDR therapy, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at a private practice in London 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.
Funds cover only therapy sessions, and I'll share progress updates (not private details) if I'm comfortable.
Where the $1,650 goes:
• 12 therapy sessions: $1,200
• Psychiatric assessment: $400
• Workbook and resources: $50
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Good luck. Wishing Tahmina a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of London.
Thinking of you, Tahmina. Gave what I could, wish it was more
Keep going, Tahmina. This could happen to any of us. My husband and I read this together
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Tahmina.
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. 12 therapy sessions is the biggest at $1,200. Appreciate you taking the time.

Praying for you. Shared this with my family. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Get well soon. Wish I lived closer to Leeds so I could bring a meal.
