Yes. If you feel you lack a guiding figure in your life and would benefit from guidance and perspective, Dawwi may still be right for you.
No. Dawwi is not therapy or mental health treatment. It is a guidance initiative focused on conversation, perspective, and support around life decisions, responsibilities, and uncertainty. If you are experiencing serious mental health concerns, professional support may be more appropriate, and Dawwi does not replace that.
Guidance sessions are informal, one-on-one conversations focused on you, your situation, your challenges, and where guidance might help. Topics may be personal, emotional, or professional, and conversations are shaped around what matters most to you.
Many people find that guidance helps them feel clearer about their situation, reassured and supported, more grounded in their decisions, and less alone while navigating challenges. The intention is to offer perspective, clarity, and a sense of relief.
No. Many people come to Dawwi feeling unsure, overwhelmed, or unclear. The first conversation is simply a space to talk through what you are navigating and explore where guidance might help.
There are no fixed commitments. The guidance journey begins with one conversation and continues only if and when it feels helpful for you. Each step is taken at your pace.
No. Dawwi’s guidance journey has no set timeframe. Conversations are shaped around your needs and move at a pace that feels right for you.
After the first conversation, we will reflect together on whether further guidance would be helpful. Any follow-up conversations are planned collaboratively, with no obligation to continue.
Yes. Conversations are treated with discretion and respect. Dawwi aims to offer a safe, supportive space for open discussion without judgement.
If it becomes clear that your needs would be better met through another form of support, we can talk openly about that. Dawwi’s intention is to be helpful and supportive, not to replace care that may be better suited elsewhere.
If you are feeling stuck, uncertain, or overwhelmed, there is a good chance guidance may help. During the first conversation, we will explore whether Dawwi feels like the right support for your situation and where guidance might be most useful.
No. Dawwi is open to Lebanese individuals living in Lebanon or abroad. Guidance sessions are typically held online.
Dawwi was created as an initiative to offer guidance without financial pressure, especially during moments when people may already feel overwhelmed. There will never be a cost to participate.
