In Lebanon the price of therapy can be depressing

In a country shaped by repeated crises and trauma, mental health care has itself become a financial burden for many.

With therapy sessions often costing between $60 and $100, and treatment typically requiring regular follow-up, many Lebanese are left facing a difficult choice: continue therapy or absorb a cost they may no longer be able to afford.

Mental health care is increasingly shifting from an essential need to a privilege for those who can pay for it.
