“You are the expert of your own life.”
Dr. Juster Waweru is a Psychotherapist and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and the founder of Taraji Therapy. She is also the co-founder of the Systemic Therapy Collective, where she works collaboratively to promote holistic, ethical, and trauma-informed mental health care.
Her work is grounded in a simple but powerful philosophy: therapy is not about being fixed it is about being supported as you reconnect with your strengths, values, and sense of self. Dr. Waweru believes that every client is the expert of their own lived experience, and her role is to walk alongside them with insight, empathy, and professional guidance.
Dr. Waweru provides therapy in a safe, non-judgmental, and culturally responsive environment where individuals, couples, families, and groups are encouraged to explore their experiences at their own pace. Whether sessions are held in person or virtually, her approach remains collaborative, respectful, and deeply client-centered.
