Machakos

After bullying at school, I've struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. My doctor has referred me to family counseling, but the public waiting list is 8 months, and private sessions at Machakos Wellbeing Centre cost $15 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 24 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 $250 goes: • 24 therapy sessions: $170 • Psychiatric assessment: $65 • Workbook and resources: $15 Glad we found this place. - Githinji

Good news. Because of your gifts ($104 in total) the first invoice got paid this week. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
