Welcome to Buhumuriro
Care that begins with listening.
Buhumuriro Counselling Centre was founded by Mrs. Kyarimpa Rose after her own experience with depression inspired a commitment to supporting others facing mental-health and life challenges.
Our community-based work brings together volunteers, counsellors, psychologists and social workers to offer psychosocial support and promote mental-health awareness.
- A compassionate, respectful approach
- Support for individuals, couples and families
- Community and school awareness activities
- Ways for volunteers and well-wishers to contribute
