Counseling Psychologist

About Me

As an experienced Counseling psychologist, I help people address challenges related to addiction, mental health, and climate change. I offer a calm, collaborative space to explore complex feelings. Together, we can make sense of your experiences and develop clear strategies for daily life. My goal is to guide you towards a more resilient path. Clients seeking a grounded, supportive approach to these issues will find a dedicated partner here.

Approach

Specialising in substance-related difficulties, psychological strain and climate-related loss, I guide sessions toward practical sense-making and steady skills-building. Whether we meet in Nairobi, in Kiswahili or English, or online, appointments are paced to your rhythm and tied to what you do between sessions. We map triggers, test small experiments, and use focused reflection—sometimes borrowing clinical supervision habits—to track patterns and reduce relapse risk. People seeking clear, usable steps and a steady, practical ally usually find this way of working helpful.
