Trauma Therapy
When something overwhelming happens, your body does what it needs to do to get you through it, and then doesn't always switch off afterwards. We work with that directly, at whatever pace you can manage.

Counselling in Rwanda
Sessions are held by secure video, so you can be anywhere in Rwanda. What matters is that you tell us you're here, because it decides who is able to work with you.
We check first. Practice is restricted here. We confirm what your counsellor must hold before matching you, and we tell you what it is.
Who is allowed to work with you
Mental health practice is regulated through the Ministry of Health and the National Council of Nurses and Midwives for some roles. We check the current position rather than assuming.
Whoever we match you with, you'll be told which registration they hold and their number, so you can check it against the register yourself before booking. The wider picture for Africa is on the Africa page.
Time zones
Rwanda runs on CAT. We confirm your local time in writing before your first session.
If you need help now
Call your local emergency number. In South Africa the SADAG helpline is 0800 567 567. Elsewhere, Befrienders Worldwide lists helplines by country at befrienders.org.
We are not a crisis service and cannot respond urgently or out of hours. More options are on our crisis page.
What we work with
The same work, wherever you are
EMDR Therapy
EMDR helps your mind finish processing something it couldn't process at the time. It's one of the most researched trauma treatments there is, and it usually asks far less of you than telling the story over and over.

You've probably tried the apps and the planners already. We'll build the practical side with you, and we'll also work on what tends to go unaddressed: the years of assuming you should find all this easier.
