About me

I am a Licensed Psychologist based in Upperhill, Nairobi, Kenya. I provide psychological and diagnostic assessments, relationship counseling, and psychoanalysis in a confidential, practical setting.

Approach

People often arrive feeling overwhelmed by memories, relationship strain or nightly worry, so I set clear, steady session rhythms that make emotional shifts easier to notice. I blend focused assessment with space for reflection, short practical tasks between sessions help translate insight into daily habits. Sessions are collaborative: we track patterns, work through emotions at a comfortable pace and adjust tools to your goals.
