Dr. Dorothy Wanjiku Mwaura is a psychologist with an impressive academic background, holding a Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D) Clinical Psychology and Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology in addition to a certificate in Marriage and Family Counseling. With over 18 years of hands-on experience with clients, she has showcased a deep commitment to understanding and addressing the diverse mental health needs of individuals across various life stages and cultural backgrounds.One of her primary areas of expertise lies in gerontology, where she has a passion for promoting mental well-being, addressing cognitive concerns and facilitating emotional resilience among older adults. Driven by a genuine empathy for the unique challenges faced by the elderly, she has gained extensive knowledge about the therapeutic approaches aimed at enhancing the quality of life for this demographic and intends to incorporate a Seniors Center in the very near future.Additionally, she has demonstrated a keen interest in working with adolescents. Understanding the complexities of this transitional phase, she has dedicated herself to creating a supportive and understanding environment for adolescents to navigate the challenges of identity, peer relationships and academic pressures. Her work with adolescents goes beyond traditional therapy, incorporating innovative and evidence-based techniques to connect with this dynamic age group effectively.Throughout her career, she has remained committed to staying abreast of the latest developments in clinical and counseling psychology, ensuring that her practice is informed by the most current research and methodologies.

Clients benefit by being in a safe and non-judgmental space where they explore and address their mental health concerns.Dr. Dorothy's expertise encompassing geriatrics, families, couples, adults and adolescents identifies her as a professional in the field of clinical and counseling psychology. As she continues to evolve in her practice, she remains dedicated to enhancing the mental well-being of individuals across the lifespan, leaving an indelible mark in the field of clinical and counseling psychology.
We conduct psychometric tests and/or clinical interviews to determine clients' mental health status and identify any other potential issues for accurate diagnosis and best treatment options.
We provide counseling psychotherapy for challenges arising from modern day stressors such as burnout, grief and loss, harassment, relationship issues and gerontology concerns, to more complex cases of anxiety, depression, trauma, geriatrics, personality, sleep, adjustment and eating disorders among others, taking into account cultural diversity and ethics.
In order to keep up to date with a constantly evolving profession, we endeavor to participate in research studies on analysis of individual and group experiences and behaviors so as to add to the clinical application of therapy that eventually benefits society.
As part of our social responsibility, we take an active and positive role of giving back to the community through sharing of current topical mental health issues.
