Miss Mary Muthoni Kinyanjui

Associate Counselor

“As a gender psychologist, I'm committed to empowering women and girls in their transformative journey. Through psychological support and empowerment strategies, my aim is to foster a mental environment where they can thrive, grow, and fulfill their unique life purposes.”

About Me

As a gender psychologist, I guide women and girls through their unique paths of growth and self-discovery. I offer tailored psychological support, helping you build confidence and find your voice. We can explore empowerment strategies together, fostering a safe mental environment where you can truly thrive. My aim is to help you connect with your inner strength and fulfil your unique purpose.

Approach

You’ll find sessions rooted in practical empowerment, where we map pressures you face and set small, achievable steps toward safety and voice. I see clients in Nairobi and remotely in English, shaping appointments to fit daily demands and parenting responsibilities. Work moves at your pace—we translate difficult experiences into clear tools, practice new responses between meetings, and, when helpful, coordinate supportive resources. This approach tends to resonate with women and young people rebuilding after abuse or those balancing care roles with personal growth.
