Therapy fund for Akello: 10 sessions with a licensed counselor
After a violent robbery, Akello has been on a waiting list for months - private therapy is the only option, and the cost is $165.

After a violent robbery, Akello has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to trauma-focused CBT, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Kinondoni cost $10 each.
Akello has been honest with her employer and taken some time off, but can't keep going without support.
Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions Akello could afford. The therapist recommends 10 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference.
Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Akello, and we're 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 $165 goes:
• 10 therapy sessions: $140
• Psychiatric assessment: $20
• Workbook and resources: $5
Thanks for being kind about this.
