Janet Wanjiku

Licensed Clinical Psychologists

“I am a psychotherapist with three years of experience, blending evidence-based approaches like CBT, ACT, DBT, and EFT to support clients facing trauma, mood disorders, and life challenges. Passionate about self-mastery, I help clients build awareness, resilience, and become the best versions of themselves.”

About Me

Navigating trauma, mood shifts, or significant life challenges can feel overwhelming. I offer a space where we can work together to build greater awareness and resilience. We'll explore practical tools to help you understand your experiences and develop strategies for lasting change. My aim is to guide you towards becoming your most authentic and capable self, ready to face what comes next.

Approach

Together we map what feels stuck and set small, doable experiments to shift patterns and rebuild trust in yourself. Sessions in Nairobi or online, in English or Kiswahili, move at a steady, practical pace—focused reflection, brief skills practice, and close attention to what changes your body and thinking. Between meetings you’ll try short exercises, note what lands and what doesn’t, and occasionally join brief group check-ins to compare strategies. People facing relationship strain, anxiety or life transitions tend to find this hands-on rhythm grounding.
