Dr. Lawana Mabry
Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)
About Lawana
I am a Doctor of Behavioral Health, as well as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I earned my doctorate degree from Arizona State University. I earned my undergraduate and graduate degrees from Louisiana State University. I have been rendering professional counseling services throughout the state of Louisiana for the last for 15 years.
My work experience includes a variety of clinical backgrounds, such as child protection, grief therapy, medical social work, school social work, inpatient psychiatric social work, individual, family & group psychotherapy as well as serving as the clinical director of an outpatient behavioral health agency with multiple locations in Louisiana. I have also rendered intense trauma-focused therapy to children who have endured or witnessed different forms of trauma such as being sexually abused or witnessing domestic violence or a murder.
I pride myself with meeting each client where they are in hopes of helping them to get to where they desire to be.
I look forward to working with you to help you reach your individualized goals.

- “I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Mabry. Finding someone who makes you feel truly heard, understood, and supported can be difficult, but from the very beginning, I felt like I had found a safe space.<br /> <br /> She has an incredible ability to listen without judgment while also challenging me in the ways I need to grow. She doesn’t simply tell me what I want to hear, she helps me look at situations from different perspectives, recognize patterns, set healthier boundaries, and better understand myself. I always leave our sessions feeling lighter, clearer, and more equipped to handle whatever life brings.”
