What I'm looking for

I’m looking for opportunities to grow professionally while contributing to counselling and mental illness prevention/treatment. I want to support people with compassion through community outreach, education-focused work, and a team that values ethics, confidentiality, and guidance.

I’m a motivated, compassionate psychology student determined to help others through counselling, mental illness prevention and treatment, and community outreach. I value strong communication, empathy, and ethical practice in every interaction.

In my university attachment as a Student Counsellor at Chuka Level 5 Referral Hospital (May 2024–August 2024), I provided counselling services under supervision. I supported mental, emotional, and physical patient assessments, conducted mental status and physical examinations, and delivered pre-test and post-test counselling for immune-suppressed patients—while maintaining confidentiality and following ethical guidelines.

As a Peer Counsellor at Chuka University (January 2023–present), I’ve supported fellow students facing academic and personal challenges through peer-to-peer guidance. I also participated in mental health awareness campaigns on campus and referred serious cases to professional university counsellors.

I’ve extended my support to the community as a Volunteer Assistant with the Community Youth Forum (August 2022–December 2022), helping organize outreach events and facilitate discussions on drug awareness and mental well-being. I’ve also strengthened my people skills through roles as an Account Manager (debt collection, loan repayment guidance, stress management, and conflict resolution) and as a Security Guard (safeguarding persons and properties and assisting my team with directions when needed).
