Hello! My name is Dr. Abey Muthoni, and I am so thrilled for the opportunity to get to know you and be part of your life journey! I was born and raised in Kenya, and have lived in the U.S. for 20 years. I earned my doctorate degree in Counseling Psychology at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL), and I am a licensed psychologist in Virginia. My treatment approach is integrative, with primary roots in relational-cultural, person-centered, and narrative therapy approaches.

In your first session with me, you will be welcomed with a warm smile and an affirming atmosphere. In the first session, I like to take the time to get to know you, and ways that I can support you in this season of your life. During our first session, we will also discuss ways that we can collaborate to work towards your goals.
My strengths include demonstrating multicultural awareness and sensitivity, genuine care and compassion, co-creating a safe and affirming environment, promoting hope and empowerment, fostering mutuality and corrective experiences, cultivating liberating and growth-fostering experiences, and building on strengths and supportive resources.
