What I'm looking for

I'm looking to support mental health research and service delivery through data collection, participant engagement, evidence-based approaches, counselling, and community-based interventions.

I've supported mental health service delivery at Gateway Mental Health, Parirenyatwa Hospital through Cordaid, Friendship Bench, and SADAG. My work includes psychological assessments, evidence-based interventions, online and in-person counselling, crisis support, and referrals for people experiencing psychological distress.

I'm committed to ethical, confidential client care and maintain detailed case records to support treatment planning, monitoring, and reporting. I also bring experience in community outreach, mental health education, participant engagement, qualitative data collection, and coordinating support services across diverse populations.
