Evans

Hi, I am Evans! I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts from Kenyatta University and a master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Daystar University in Nairobi, Kenya. I am currently pursuing my Ph.D. in the same discipline. 

I have over 10 years’ experience in counseling practice with proven competencies in working with children, adolescents, and families, as well as facilitating psychoeducational sessions on topical issues such as improving family relations, preventing substance abuse, and coping with stress. As a counseling psychologist I am involved with screening & assessment for various conditions including ADHD in children, outpatient counseling for individuals with substance use disorders, and helping families resolve issues around loss, grief, or trauma. 

I am a Certified Addiction Professional in the treatment of persons with substance use disorders with the Global Centre for Credentialing and Certification, and have also delivered in-person professional development courses to other counselors in Kazakhstan, Vienna, Nigeria, Colombo, Bahamas, Vietnam, Abu Dhabi, and Pakistan. 

I am a strong advocate for mental health and have participated in various national forums that seek to improve mental health in Kenya. 

I am from Kenya, and I speak fluent English and Swahili.
