Introduction

Lawana strongly believes in the importance of the family unit and hopes to dedicate her efforts to strengthening them.

She has been trained and certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to enable her to help those who come with various forms of trauma, depression and anxiety disorders. She also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) when needed. Both Lawana’s education and her family life have given her a head start as a therapist.
