Ms Agnes Mwangi

Psychologist

“A compassionate Counseling Psychologist who is out to promote mental health and well being in a caring environment.”

About Me

This compassionate Counseling Psychologist promotes mental health and well-being within a truly caring environment. The aim is to help individuals navigate life's challenges with greater ease. Sessions offer a safe space to explore thoughts and feelings, moving at your own pace. This approach is ideal for anyone seeking gentle support to foster inner resilience and clarity. It helps clients find a path towards a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Approach

Sessions begin with gentle curiosity and a focus on what matters most to you, creating room to name concerns without pressure. Based in Nairobi, I offer English-language work both in person and online, adjusting pace and contact to suit adolescents, adults, couples and groups. I blend attentive listening with collaborative goal-setting, paced exposure or stabilising techniques for anxiety and trauma, reflective tasks between meetings, and brief check-ins to track progress. This way of working tends to help people seeking steady, respectful change at their own rhythm.
