Ms Fortunate Kambidzi

Registered Social Worker

verified by TherapyRoute

A registered Social Worker who believes in preparing children for their future by dealing with issues that are affecting them today.

About Me

Children often carry big feelings and current challenges that can feel overwhelming. This registered Social Worker believes in helping young people navigate these present difficulties. They work together to understand what is happening for children today, exploring their unique experiences and feelings. This approach offers practical support to build resilience now, preparing children to face their future with greater confidence and well-being.

Approach

When big feelings and current worries take over, my work is hands-on and paced to a child's rhythm. Sessions in Harare are in English and usually face-to-face, where I use drawing, play and gentle questions to make sense of behaviour and to build small, achievable skills. Parents and carers join between meetings with simple strategies we practise together while assessments inform next steps. This approach suits families looking for steady, practical support that helps children feel more capable day to day.
