About Me

As a passionate associate counsellor, I draw on broad experience from psychiatric hospitals, communities, and organisations. I work with you to prevent, promote, and maintain good mental health. My approach helps you build lasting well-being, offering practical support tailored to your unique journey. This varied background means I understand diverse challenges, creating a grounded, supportive space for all my clients.

Approach

Therapy unfolds through practical, goal-focused steps that honour your pace and everyday realities while keeping mental health front and centre. I offer in-person sessions in Nairobi and secure online meetings in English or Kiswahili, so support fits your schedule and comfort. Guided by careful assessment, our sessions mix short-term strategies, skill practice and advocacy between meetings to address anxiety, addiction, stress, attention and mood challenges. This steady, hands-on way of working often helps individuals and organisations seeking clear, sustainable progress.
