Proactive self-growth
Stress management, resilience building and personal development. Daily tools, screenings and skill-building content, no coordinator needed, no wait, no cost.
Get support
Meet yourself where you are.
You do not have to be in difficulty to belong here. Lebona runs on a tiered model, preventive tools first, a professional when you want one, and an honest hand-off to urgent care when that is what's needed.
The tiered model
Three levels of support, and you choose the entry point
The intake form asks which of these you want, and routes you accordingly. You can move between them at any time.
Groups & coordinator check-in
Facilitated peer circles and affordable group workshops, or a short check-in call with a care coordinator to work out what would actually help.
One-to-one therapy
Regular sessions with a verified psychologist, matched to your language, gender preference and preferred approach. Individual, couples or teens.
If you need support right now
None of the above is fast enough for a crisis, matching is manual and takes 24–48 hours. Call your national helpline directly: Ethiopia 952 · Kenya 1190 · Rwanda 116.
01 · Human-guided professional care
Professional support, shaped around you
Verified psychologists in Ethiopia, Kenya and Rwanda, matched by a human care coordinator to your language, gender preference and preferred approach. By voice, video, messaging or in person.
Individual
For anxiety, low mood, grief, trauma, purpose, confidence, work and study stress, or a specific decision you need to think through with someone who isn't involved.
Couples
Communication, trust after a breach, conflict, intimacy, money, in-laws, parenting differences, or working out honestly whether to continue.
Teens (13–17)
School pressure, bullying, family conflict, identity, self-harm and low mood, with an adolescent specialist, and clear boundaries agreed with parents from day one.
How we get the match right
Language, not translation
You are matched with someone who works natively in your language. Feeling is hard enough to describe in your first language.
Verified against national boards
Kenya Counsellors & Psychologists Board, Ethiopian Ministry of Health, Rwanda Allied Health Professions Council, checked before onboarding, re-checked annually.
Style, not just specialism
Gentle or direct, flexible or structured. Getting this wrong is the most common reason people quit therapy in the first month.
Free to change
If the fit is wrong, one message to your coordinator gets you another introduction. No fee, no explanation, no awkwardness.
02 · Support groups
Some things are only believable from someone who's lived them
Small circles of six to ten people, held weekly by a trained facilitator, open across all three countries. First names only. Join by phone or video.
