About Me

As an experienced Clinical Psychologist, I work with individuals across all age groups. I help people navigate life's toughest challenges, including emotional trauma, loss, and grief. We can also explore depression, anxiety, ADHD, and Autism, understanding their unique impacts. My aim is to create a safe space where you can make sense of your experiences. This approach fosters resilience and helps you find a path towards greater well-being.

Approach

Working with people across all ages, I shape sessions around what feels most useful right now—steady, paced and responsive to your rhythm. In Nairobi or online, in English or Kiswahili, sessions blend focused conversation, brief practical experiments and gentle tracking between meetings so progress is visible and manageable. For children we weave play and activities; with adults we use structured steps and targeted processing to address painful memories, mood shifts or attention differences. This way of working often suits those seeking clear steps and steady support.
