Who We Are

Real Time Psychosupport CBO

Mental healthcare that begins with people.

We are a grassroots, community-driven organization based in Mathare, Nairobi, working to make quality mental health and psychosocial support accessible, affordable, and compassionate.

Our Belief

Because mental health is not a privilege.

It is a human right.

We work to ensure that people experiencing emotional and psychological challenges can find support, dignity, and hope regardless of their economic circumstances.

Our Story01

Turning invisible suffering into visible support.

Behind the resilience of communities like Mathare are countless stories of emotional pain — from families facing poverty and displacement to young people navigating trauma, violence, unemployment, and uncertainty.

Real Time Psychosupport was established to bridge the gap between these challenges and the professional support people deserve.

Today, we combine community engagement with professional mental health services, trauma-informed care, youth empowerment, school-based interventions, workplace wellness, and humanitarian psychosocial support.

Our Approach

Theory of Change

From access to care to lasting change.

We believe that when people have access to quality mental health services, psychosocial support, and opportunities to build resilience, they become better equipped to overcome adversity and participate meaningfully in their families and communities.

Why Our Work Matters

Investing in emotional wellbeing today creates stronger communities tomorrow.

Mental wellbeing affects how people learn, work, build relationships, respond to adversity, and participate in society. Our approach therefore looks beyond individual counselling to the wider systems and relationships that shape people's lives.

Better mental wellbeing contributes to healthier families, safer communities, and sustainable development.
