Therapy fund for Amaka: 12 sessions with a licensed counselor
A course of family counseling for Amaka could change everything; the cost is $200.
🇳🇬 Lagos, Nigeria1,612 views
After burnout at work, Amaka has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred her to family counseling, but the public waiting list is 11 months, and private sessions at Lagos Wellbeing Centre cost $10 each.
Amaka 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 Amaka could afford. The therapist recommends 12 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference.
Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Amaka, and we're 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 $200 goes:
• 12 therapy sessions: $135
• Psychiatric assessment: $45
• Workbook and resources: $20
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
