Mr Joseph Otieno O.

Counseling Psychologist

“Joseph is Licensed Counselor Psychologist by Counselors And Psychologist Board Kenya. Founder & CEO Insight Glow Wellness. Over 16 years of experience as a Counseling Psychologist with Competencies in adult, adolescent, play therapy, grief, organization debriefing and mental health coaching.”

About Me

With over 14 years as a Counseling Psychologist, I support adults and young people as they navigate life's challenges. My broad expertise ranges from grief Counseling to mental health coaching. For younger clients, I use play therapy to help them express feelings and make sense of their world. I aim to help you find practical ways forward, ensuring a safe space for every voice.

Approach

I let a clear assessment guide each meeting, shaping collaborative, paced sessions where curiosity meets practical steps. In Nairobi or online, in English or Kiswahili, sessions feel focused yet flexible—short check-ins, activity-based moments for younger clients, and reflective coaching for adults. I use play, structured diagnostic questions and brief between-session exercises to track change, gently testing what helps and adjusting the plan. Those seeking clarity after loss, structured workplace debriefs or support for a child’s inner world often find this way of working grounding.
