Miss Fahra Mawji

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist

Marriage and Family therapist specialized in trauma, mindfulness. EFT & EMDR LEVEL1 CERTIFIED. A dedicated professional commited to providing the highest quality of care and services to clients. Serving all members of the family system from children tO the elderly. Multipronged approach tailored to client needs.

About Me

I guide individuals and families through the complexities of trauma. My compassionate, tailored approach supports all family members, from children to the elderly. We integrate mindfulness, providing practical tools for managing difficult emotions. Clients value this dedicated care, finding a safe space where every voice is heard. Together, we can explore new ways to heal and foster greater well-being.

Approach

Sessions move between focused practical work and gentle reflection, balancing breath-based grounding with structured, family-centered conversation so healing grows at a sustainable pace. In Nairobi or online, in English or Kiswahili, I hold a calm rhythm—short check-ins, hands-on skill practice, occasional brief assessments—and I invite caregivers and young people to try small experiments between meetings. Therapy often threads daily routines into recovery, shifting interactions more than expecting overnight change. People seeking steady, collaborative support across life stages tend to find this way of working helpful.
