Mrs Nnenna Amuka, MSc

CBT Psychotherapist

“I am an experienced, competent, passionate clinical psychologist. I specialised in the area of depression, self-esteem, substance abuse and addiction, and learning disabilities in children.”

About Me

As an experienced and competent clinical psychologist, I offer passionate support for adults facing depression, self-esteem issues, or substance abuse. I also guide children experiencing learning disabilities. Utilising my CBT psychotherapy expertise, I equip you with practical tools. This focused approach helps you understand your thoughts and behaviours. Together, we will build lasting coping strategies for resilience.

Approach

Sessions move at a focused, collaborative pace where we set clear goals, check small changes each week, and adapt techniques to your life in Monrovia or online in English or Igbo. In-session work blends structured thinking exercises with practical problem-solving, while between sessions you may try brief practice tasks to strengthen new habits and manage urges or low mood. I track progress together so we can adjust what’s useful. This way of working often suits adults and parents seeking steady, skills-based change.
