Yinka's path to healing - weekly cognitive behavioral therapy in Onitsha
A course of weekly cognitive behavioral therapy for Yinka could change everything; the cost is $350.
🇳🇬 Onitsha, Anambra, Nigeria1,494 views
After a difficult divorce, Yinka 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 Onitsha cost $10 each.
Yinka 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 Yinka 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 Yinka, 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 $350 goes:
• 20 therapy sessions: $300
• Psychiatric assessment: $25
• Workbook and resources: $25
Thanks for reading all this.

Praying for you, Adewale. Hope the doctors have good news. Sent it to 37 people at work. Thinking of Onitsha
is there anything that isn't money that would help Yinka?
Thank you. If you're in Onitsha I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for looking so closely.
Thinking of you and your family. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't give up.
So sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Onitsha.
Keep going, Adewale. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Santos.
Hope it all works out. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Nnewi so I could bring a meal.
Hang in there, Adewale. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'll check back for the next update.
hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Love from Maringá.
Keep going. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Pretoria.
So sorry you're going through this, Adewale. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I'll check back for the next update. All the best
shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Onitsha.
hope it all works out. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Good luck, Adewale. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Hyderabad
