About Me

I help individuals navigate profound emotional challenges. My expertise includes trauma, anxiety, depression, and PTSD. I also address the complexities of loss, grief, and anger management, alongside suicidal thoughts. I offer practical strategies and a compassionate approach, helping you process difficult experiences. Clients seeking a clear path through overwhelming feelings will find a dedicated and understanding guide.

Approach

When we work together, I focus on creating a safe, practical space where difficult memories and strong emotions can be explored at a manageable pace. Sessions in Nairobi or via English-language video are structured around clear goals, brief assessments, and gentle pacing so you guide the rhythm. We use focused conversation, grounding and breathing exercises, short between-session reflections and problem‑solving tasks to build coping skills and reduce distress. People facing overwhelming grief, intrusive memories, intense anger or suicidal thoughts often find this steady, collaborative way helpful.
