A community built around care, dignity and hope.

Buhumuriro Counselling Centre exists to make compassionate psychosocial support and mental-health awareness more accessible in Mbarara and surrounding communities.

How we began

Turning a personal journey into a commitment to others.

According to the founder Mrs. Kyarimpa Rose, Buhumuriro Counselling Centre was established in February 2020 after her own experience of depression shaped her passion for supporting people experiencing mental-health challenges.

The Centre is a non-profit-making Community Based Organisation registered with Mbarara City under registration number MC/CBS/752.

Its work is supported by volunteers including counsellors, psychologists and social workers. The Centre also collaborates with psychiatrists for cases requiring additional clinical support.
