Integrative Therapy & Counselling

Counselling can provide you with a confidential and supportive professional relationship from within which you can make sense of what’s going on, develop new skills ,increase your resilience, and empower you to make positive changes for the future so you can navigate life’s challenges more effectively and make sense of what is going on for you.

About Me

Nyawira Njiraini

Counsellor, BACP (she, her)

I am a qualified counsellor and a registered member of the British Association of counselling and psychotherapy (BACP) based in West Sussex, offering private short- and open-ended therapy, via face-to-face or on-line mediums for adults & couples seeking support for a wide variety of challenges.

My approach to counselling is integrative; I utilise social prescribing as a resource and also use my skills and knowledge to support you to understand your unmet needs as I believe that there can be no ‘one size fits all’. I have extensively studied and made use of person centred, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, systemic practice and attachment theories so that how we work together is determined by your unique experiences.

Testimonials

From overcoming anxiety to building confidence and resilience, our compassionate approach has helped individuals navigate life’s challenges. Here’s what some of my clients have to say:

❝

I recently underwent 6 counselling sessions with Nyawira and found the experience to be very helpful not only for my mental health but also in helping me understand and better deal with various issues in my life.
I felt she really listened and validated how I was feeling and helped me find some solutions and ways of managing my ups and downs. She was very warm and I felt relaxed enough to open up which I don’t do day to day and by my last session I felt a lot better in myself and more positive about my life I would highly recommend Nyawira’s counselling sessions to anyone that’s in need of extra help and support and if I could have afforded to carry on with sessions I would have …and going forward if I need support again I will most definitely turn to her she’s so professional and genuinely empathised with my struggles and I always felt better by the end of every session.

❝

I have just completed six weekly sessions with Nyawira. I’ve found the sessions really helpful to disentangle various things that have been going on and to feel better equipped to take practical next steps, including a healthy dose of self-care. Nyawira was a great counsellor through the sessions, I found the conversations flowed freely and I felt very comfortable and safe working with her. A big thank you to the service overall, and to Nyawira. Would very happily recommend.

❝

She was very empathetic and understanding and a good listener.
