“I am a qualified marriage and family systemic counsellor based in Harare Zimbabwe. With over 10 years of experience, my therapy focuses on honest reflection, depth and genuine change”

About Me

I am a compassionate and person-centred Family Therapist dedicated to creating a safe, supportive, and non-judgemental space where individuals, couples, and families feel heard, understood, and empowered. I believe that every person has a unique story, and I work collaboratively with clients to help them navigate life's challenges with empathy, curiosity, and respect. My areas of interest include premarital counselling, marriage and relationship therapy, grief and loss, end-of-life support, substance use, and supporting individuals and families impacted by child abuse and trauma. I also provide Christian counselling if requested. I understand that reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, and I strive to provide a calm and trusting therapeutic environment where healing, resilience, and personal growth can occur. My approach is grounded in trauma-informed, strengths-based, and evidence-informed practice. Together, we will explore your experiences, identify your strengths, and develop practical tools that support meaningful and lasting change. Whether you are preparing for marriage, working through relationship difficulties, coping with loss, supporting a loved one through addiction, or healing from trauma, I am committed to walking alongside you with compassion, authenticity, and hope.

Approach

I use a professional, warm, empathic, person-centred, trauma-informed, non-judgmental approach. I start with a comprehensive assessment which will further determine the best treatment plan for future sessions. I offer intensive and regular sessions, whichever suits your needs and lifestyle. I can provide in-person session or phone sessions. Please use the contact form to book an appointment so we can discuss further.
