Sophie Muriuki

Clinical Psychologist

A competent Clinical Psychologist working with - other therapists offering clinical supervision - both children and adults across a range of psychological concerns.

About Me

As a Clinical Psychologist, I support adults and children navigating a wide range of psychological concerns. My approach creates a space to explore challenges and find clarity. I also offer clinical supervision to other therapists, which enriches my understanding of diverse experiences. This blend helps me tailor effective strategies, guiding you towards greater well-being and resilience.

Approach

Working with colleagues and people of all ages informs how I structure therapy: practical, paced, and collaborative so your questions shape each step. In Nairobi I meet in English or Kiswahili and offer virtual sessions when travel or school schedules make that easier, keeping continuity between meetings with brief, focused check‑ins. Sessions blend assessment, problem‑solving and reflective work tailored to mood and anxiety patterns, with clear goals and homework when helpful. This way of working tends to suit those seeking steady, skills‑based progress and clearer daily functioning.
