Mr Dismas Ochieng Nyangute

Counselor

“An experienced therapist with a multicultural orientation.”

About Me

As an experienced counsellor, I offer a warm, multicultural space. I help individuals navigate life's challenges, honouring how your background shapes your experience. With an MA in Counseling Psychology, I understand the unique influences of culture and personal history. Our sessions can explore the rich tapestry of your identity. This approach particularly suits those seeking to integrate their diverse experiences for greater clarity and well-being.

Approach

That multicultural orientation shapes how I guide sessions: we move at a steady, respectful pace, listening to your story and noticing where culture, harm or loss influence what you face now. In Kisumu or via secure online meetings in English or Kiswahili I pair gentle creative practices with practical steps, including careful documentation and liaison with other systems when that supports your aims. Between sessions I offer brief, focused check-ins and art-based prompts to deepen insight and safety. People facing grief, abuse or identity tensions often find this paced, culturally attentive work grounding.
