• Dear Hiring Manager
• I am writing to express my keen interest in the [Position Title] role at [Organization Name], as advertised. With over five years of experience delivering community-based and digital mental health services in Kenya, I bring a unique combination of clinical expertise, youth engagement, and program leadership that aligns with your mission to strengthen mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) across vulnerable populations globally.
• Currently, I serve as the Head Psychologist at Let's Talk 24/7, a digital mental health platform dedicated to making professional care accessible for individuals in under-resourced and underserved communities. My role involves leading a team of counselors, designing clinical protocols, responding to crisis cases, and building strategic partnerships with schools, churches, hospitals, and NGOs. Prior to this, I worked as a Clinical Supervisor at Shamiri Institute, where I oversaw a school-based mental health intervention supporting over 13 Fellows delivering evidence-informed services to adolescents across multiple institutions.
• Throughout my career, I have remained committed to trauma-informed, culturally sensitive, and youth-centered approaches. I have also led mental health outreach campaigns, co-authored psychosocial content for awareness programs, and contributed to donor proposals, including one submitted to BRAC International for PFA and TOT services. These experiences have equipped me with the competencies needed to operate in humanitarian contexts where adaptability, compassion, and collaboration are critical.
• I am fluent in English, French, and Swahili, and I hold certifications in Clinical Supervision, Psychological First Aid, and Child Safeguarding. I am confident that my skill set and values would make me a strong asset to your team, especially in designing and implementing sustainable mental health programs that prioritize dignity, access, and equity.
