My working days are; Monday, Wednesday and Sunday
About me and my therapy practice
Hello and welcome to Saumu Waziri counselling. I am an experienced female counsellor originally from Kenya with a passion for steering individuals through their journey of wellness. Being a first-generation immigrant, I am attuned to diverse life challenges surrounding culture, identity, fears and anxieties about life’s responsibilities.
- Do you believe self-awareness is key in effectively moving through life yet still don’t have understanding or clarity about in yourself, leaving you feeling down and depressed?
- Do you agree that the quality of your thoughts impacts the quality of your experience, yet often have spiralling thoughts full of stress and anxiety?
- Do you sense that different experiences throughout your life have shaped or moulded the person you are today and yet constantly feel lost and hopeless about how to get through life?
Well, I invite you to book an appointment with me to explore ways and tools for navigating your mental health and wellbeing.
Practice description
In my 14 years of studying and working in counselling and mental health services I noted if you’re not right in your mental health and wellbeing, you can’t not have wellness. Consequently, I developed an Humanistic Integrated Approach combining Humanistic philosophy with Cognitive Behavioural Therapist and Trauma-Informed practice.
This provides more than a symptom-focused treatment to give short-term relief but rather a holistic perspective on your individual experience and equips you with psychological tools giving you a renewed sense of purpose in your journey of wellness.
I draw from both my personal and professional experiences to develop individuals’ insight, resilience and growth in adversity which I hope connects me with my clients.
How counselling can help
- Provides protected space for reflection and processing issues.
- Provides psychological tools to develop effective ways to coping.
- Provides deeper sense of self-esteem, self-confidence and self-awareness.
