She runs her own clinical practice.<\/p>\n

Dr. Muchiri values integrity excellence. Her practice focuses on providing quality mental health services to Kenyans from diverse backgrounds. She does this by delivering cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and other evidence-based treatments to emerging (18-29 years) and young adults.<\/p>\n

Dr. Muchiri\u2019s interest in emerging adults extends beyond her professional practice. During the course of her training and practice, she came to realise that existing research failed to account for emerging adulthood as a developmental stage with unique cultural features, present in developing countries such as Kenya. This led to her focus on that large gap of knowledge in research relating to emerging adulthood as a cross-cultural concept.<\/p>\n

Dr Muchiri holds a Doctor of Psychology – Clinical Psychology (Psy.D), and a Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology both from the United States International University \u2013 Africa, as well as a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Diploma in Counseling from Daystar University.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
