@jacobmochama
Psychology graduate and peer counsellor with strengths in outreach, data entry, and client-focused support.
What I'm looking for
I am an adaptable self-starter who is way optimistic, passionate, and self-driven. With a Bachelor's of arts in psychology degree (Fourth year) and work experience as a peer Councillor, I bring strong communication, interpersonal skills, and a commitment to meeting and exceeding targets—whether working independently or as part of a team.
In my attachment at the omari project (malindi- Kenya), I supported clients through data entry and clients referral for methadone, applied stress management techniques, and handled managing correspondence to support the departments. I also delivered peer counselling, feed programming, conflict resolution, outreach work, and community engagement/public awareness—showing that I can perform well under pressure and still meet deadlines.
