Tunde's path to healing - weekly cognitive behavioral therapy in Awka
After the death of both parents, Tunde has been on a waiting list for months - private therapy is the only option, and the cost is $410.

After the death of both parents, Tunde has struggled with anxiety, sleep and panic attacks. The doctor has referred him to weekly cognitive behavioral therapy, but the public waiting list is 6 months, and private sessions at a private practice in Awka cost $10 each.
Tunde has been honest with his employer and taken some time off, but can't keep going without support.
Therapy has already helped a little in the sessions Tunde could afford. The therapist recommends 20 weekly sessions, and consistent help will make the difference.
Asking for help with this has been the hardest part for Tunde, 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 $410 goes:
• 20 therapy sessions: $380
• Psychiatric assessment: $25
• Workbook and resources: $5
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Awka
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about 20 therapy sessions, advice is welcome too. It helps to be asked.
Best of luck, Yewande. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too
Hang in there. Hope this works out for you. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Awka.
Stay strong, Yewande. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Rotterdam this morning. Love from Rotterdam.
Hope things get better soon, Yewande. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Sent it to 15 people at work. Greetings from Nairobi.
Sending good thoughts. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
