Mrs Jane Karumba

Psychologist

A qualified Psychologist with experience assessing and diagnosing a range of clinical mental concerns; I specialize in individual therapy for adults, young adults, and young children. I also offer educational consultation services for learning, attention, executive functioning, ADHD, and anxiety.

About Me

I help individuals of all ages navigate mental health concerns, including adults, young adults, and children. In individual therapy, I offer a clear, calm space to explore your experiences. For learning, attention, ADHD, or anxiety, I provide educational consultations to understand challenges and equip you with practical strategies. My aim is to help you translate insights into actionable steps, fostering clarity and confidence in daily life.

Approach

My sessions centre on turning assessment findings into manageable steps you can try in daily life, so clinical understanding meets routine. In Nairobi or online, in English or Kiswahili, we work at a steady, collaborative pace: set a clear goal, practise small strategies during and between sessions, then review what shifted. I use brief measures, short tasks and occasional parent or school feedback to track progress objectively. People juggling attention, learning, mood or parenting challenges tend to find this structured, hands-on rhythm reassuring and practical.
