Personal and Group Therapy Services
Individual Counselling
Individual counselling/therapy is a one-on-one counselling session between the client and the therapist/counsellor meant to address personal concerns a client is facing. The sessions can be done physically(in-person) or virtually through tele-counselling or video link. Individual counselling is suitable for clients who wish to deal with any social, psychological, or emotional issues of concern to the client. The client may also not have an issue per se but simply want to improve themselves for the better. The latter falls under personal growth and development. The client may also be seeking mentorship and coaching so that they can acquire certain vital skills to them. At Shalom Counselling, our program caters for all that.
Marital/Couples Therapy
Couple’s/relationship counselling is a form of therapy where people in a romantic relationship seek and receive support to address issues affecting their relationship. Also, a couple may not have issues but may simply be interested in improving a certain aspect of the relationship. Couples’ counselling includes both premarital and marital counselling. Married and unmarried couples can greatly benefit from this form of therapy. Family therapy is closely related to Couples’ counselling only that other family members of the couple take part in the therapy process. They include children, parents, in-laws and many more. Like couples’ counselling, the essence of family therapy is to address social, psychological or emotional issues/dynamics in a family. It may also be supportive in nature in cases of loss & grief counselling and health/palliative care counselling.

Corporate Trainings
Customized mental health and wellness trainings entail mental health programs designed and customized according to the specific needs of an organization. The program mainly covers three areas: employee wellbeing, team motivation and employee productivity. The program is designed based on findings of employee wellness surveys and assessments which we also conduct. The program lasts between 1 month to 3 months depending on the size of the organisation.
Employee Surveys
Employee wellness surveys are studies conducted at the workplace using questionnaires to understand the correlation between employee satisfaction(happiness), productivity and retention rate. The surveys help the organisation to better understand the wellness preference of employees at the workplace. Further, the surveys shed more light on the importance employees attach to their wellbeing. The surveys are important as employee’s wellness has a huge impact on their performance.
Workplace Counseling
In-house/workplace counselling is basically the provision of personalized counselling/therapy services to individual employees or groups at the workplace. The program helps employees to receive mental health services at the comfort of their offices. It saves employees & the organisation time as employees don’t have to interfere with their work when seeking therapy. It also provides an opportunity to address workplace related mental health issues such as: stigma and discrimination, demand/control and effort/reward relationships, absenteeism, job burnout, harassment, violence, bullying and mobbing and problematic substance use among other issues.
What our customers are saying...
“Simeon has helped me unpack issues that I didnt even know that I had, and I'd say the difference in my happiness from when I started therapy is monumental – I feel like a brand new person. I am a lot more confident, positive, energetic. I have a new thirst for life that I have never felt before.”
— Kathy, Nairobi
“Ms. Ruth Kemunto is an amazing therapist. I was referred to her for individual and couples’ therapy. She really took a keen interest in my concern and supported me in the journey to recovery. My husband was a little hesitant in seeing her as our couples’ therapist but has found that she is skilled and very helpful. I would highly recommend Ruth to anyone who needs a therapist.”
— Mercy, Kitengela
