About Me

As Lead Psychotherapist at Raba Care Center, I guide individuals ready to foster positive change. My Counseling approach offers practical strategies and insights for navigating life’s challenges. We work collaboratively, cultivating skills and understanding for your personal growth. Clients seeking personal transformation and community contribution will find a supportive space. Here, we can build a better future together.

Approach

Sustained community impact begins with steady, practical work in sessions where I listen closely and help you map doable steps toward change. Whether we meet in Nairobi or online, in English or Kiswahili, sessions are paced to fit your rhythm, mixing careful assessment, focused reflection and small experiments between appointments. For children, families or adults facing abuse, stress or diagnostic questions I blend assessment with coaching-style skill building and safety-focused planning, always centring your priorities. Those seeking tangible progress and clearer community roles often find this approach helpful.
