In a speech delivered in St. Paul, Reem Abbasi, psychotherapist/trainer at CVT Jordan, spoke about her work with a 13 year-old Syrian girl who had been held in prison. Reem used the name “Jana” for the child, who was taken by forces in order to get her father to turn himself in. Jana told Reem, “I don’t deserve life, my father has been killed because of me.” But Jana found healing through psychotherapy and physiotherapy sessions at CVT Jordan.
