About Me

I'm here to offer a compassionate and non-judgmental ear. Together, we can explore the unique challenges you're facing, helping you develop practical strategies to improve your mental health. I provide a welcoming space where you can speak freely, gaining clarity on patterns of stress and anxiety. My commitment is to guide you towards lasting support. This collaborative approach suits anyone seeking an understanding and confidential path forward.

Approach

You’ll find sessions that move at your pace, balancing gentle reflection with practical steps to reduce overwhelm and build clarity. I work with adults, adolescents and couples in Nairobi and online, offering conversations in English or Kiswahili so we keep things accessible and familiar. Sessions often mix focused check-ins, short assessments for children or attention concerns, and simple practices you can try between meetings to manage stress, trauma memories or relationship strain. This way of working suits people seeking steady, solution-focused change.
