Counselling Psychologist
Rechael Mbugwa
Mrs. Rechael Mbugwa had long been known not just as a counselor but as a compassionate companion in people’s journeys toward healing. Clients often described her as someone who did not just listen but truly understood the depths of their struggles. Whether they had battled anxiety for years, carried unspoken trauma, or felt the silent strain of a fractured relationship, she had offered more than therapy—she had offered a space where people felt seen, heard, and validated.
One client, who had walked into her practice feeling emotionally exhausted and lost, had later described how therapy with Rechael had reshaped their perspective: “For the first time in years, I didn’t feel broken beyond repair. She made me feel like healing was not just possible—it was already happening.” Another had shared that before meeting her, they had assumed therapy was only for “serious cases,” but soon realized it was a place where anyone could find clarity, peace, and strength.
Rechael’s approach had always been built on authentic storytelling—the kind that connected deeply with the real, human experiences of pain and resilience. She had often shared anonymized stories of transformation, not just as testimonials but as proof that no struggle was beyond redemption. A young woman who had silently battled post-traumatic stress had once said, “I used to wake up feeling paralyzed by fear. Through therapy, I learned to breathe again. To live again.” Another, struggling with the weight of a toxic relationship, had recounted how Rechael’s guidance had empowered them to reclaim their worth.
Her work had not just been about providing listening ear; it had been about walking with people in their healing. Through every session, every conversation, and every moment of breakthrough, she had reinforced the message: You are not alone. Your pain is real. And healing is within reach.
Beyond individual therapy, Rechael had built a powerful platform that addressed mental health in culturally relevant ways. She had understood that therapy could not be a one-size-fits-all approach. In Kenya, where mental health discussions had often been clouded by stigma, she had spoken in a language that resonated with local communities—whether it was guiding couples through marital conflicts, supporting youth in navigating emotional challenges, or offering faith-based counseling that intertwined psychological science with biblical wisdom.
Her practice had not only served individuals but had also extended its impact to organizations, schools, and churches. She had facilitated mental health awareness programs at AIC CURE International Hospital, provided training on emotional well-being to youth featured on NTV Kenya, and had been a trusted expert on national and international media, including the BBC Africa Daily and the Sunday Nation. Whether discussing grief, parenting, relationship boundaries, or trauma recovery, she had spoken in a way that made complex psychological issues relatable and actionable.
With seven years of experience in the field, Rechael had continued to refine her practice, ensuring that those who sought her help felt a deep emotional connection—not just to therapy but to the belief that healing was possible for them. Her expertise had been backed by strong academic credentials, including a Bachelor’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Africa Nazarene University and her ongoing Master’s studies at Pan Africa Christian University. Her professional journey had also been enriched by her leadership experience in the corporate sector, allowing her to understand the pressures of workplace mental health and employee well-being.
Above all, Rechael had built her brand on the truth that people don’t just do therapy—they seek the promise of healing, peace, and transformation. Her content, and workshops had all reflected this core belief. She had designed her messaging to speak directly to the emotions people carried—grief, stress, anxiety, and confusion—not as problems to be “fixed,” but as experiences to be understood and navigated with care. Whether through social media posts, counseling sessions, or workshops, she had continuously reinforced the message:
“We see you. We hear you. You’re not alone.”
Her legacy had not just been built in therapy rooms but in the lives she had touched. From the mother who had learned to set boundaries with her children to the husband who had found his voice in a marriage weighed down by silence, Rechael had been a bridge between pain and healing.
Her work had been more than a profession—it had been a calling. And for those who had walked into her practice with doubt but left with hope, her message had always been clear:
Healing is not just a possibility. It is your reality waiting to unfold. with her goal being to :
“Putting a smile in your heart.”
