After a violent robbery, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at the Kozhikode Counselling Collective 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 10 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 $250 goes:
• 10 therapy sessions: $200
• Psychiatric assessment: $45
• Workbook and resources: $5
Every share and every dollar helps.

Thinking of you and your family. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 12 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Aarav
Sure. The biggest one is 10 therapy sessions, $200. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Let me know if you want more detail.
rooting for you, Aarav. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. All the best
Wishing Aarav a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Setagaya
Wishing you the best, Aarav. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Ikeja.
