verified by TherapyRoute

I am a dedicated therapist having worked in various setting such as Hospitals, Schools, Corporate and Community for 5 years , I am committed to promoting psychological wellbeing through evidenced based assessment, intervention and therapeutic support. My professional practice is grounded in empathy and respect.

About Me

I am a Licensed Associate Professional Counselor and psychologist based in Milimani, Kisumu, Kenya. I conduct psychological and diagnostic assessments. You receive focused therapy for addiction, adolescent concerns, family conflict, PTSD, and psychosis.

Approach

I guide conversations that balance clear assessment with problem-focused planning. In Kisumu or online, sessions move at a steady pace, using English or Kiswahili, mixing focused diagnostics, skills practice and space to process emotions. Between meetings I offer brief check-ins and practical tasks to strengthen coping with trauma, addiction, family strain or overwhelming stress, while keeping collaboration and consent central. This way of working tends to help people who want practical, culturally aware support with measurable steps.
