Mrs Divine Rusagara

Licensed Clinical Psychologists

“A knowledgeable and empathic clinical psychologist with 10 years of experience in assisting people struggling with addiction and/or trauma.”

About Me

When life feels overwhelmed by addiction or trauma, finding a path forward can be daunting. With ten years' experience, I offer an empathic space to help you navigate these challenges. We'll gently process past experiences and build practical strategies for lasting stability. My goal is to help you transform challenges into a path towards renewed well-being. You can gain tools to navigate life with greater peace.

Approach

Calm, steady pacing guides my work as I help you make sense of painful memories and the patterns that keep you stuck. In Kigali or online, in English or French, sessions feel focused and collaborative—balancing grounding and mindful practice with short, practical experiments you can try between meetings. I mix structured reflection with compassionate challenge so you build safety, reduce cravings or reactivity, and reclaim daily routines. People who want practical skills alongside empathetic support often find this approach helpful.
