Who We Are

About IHAK

Institute of Holistic Health Affairs Kenya

A disruptive, youth-centered holistic health organisation transforming lives across Africa.

Our Story

Youth health challenges
do not happen in silos.

A young person struggling mentally is often also struggling financially. One navigating reproductive health may lack emotional safety, guidance, or access to trusted care. Yet most systems treat these issues separately.

We don't.

IHAK builds integrated health ecosystems that equip young people not just to survive — but to thrive, earn, relate, decide, and lead healthier lives. Our model blends care delivery, education, technology, and talent development.

Our Vision

A generation of young people who are healthy in mind, body, relationships, finances, and purpose — empowered to live fully and contribute meaningfully to society.

Our Mission

To transform youth wellbeing by delivering integrated, accessible, and future-ready holistic health solutions, while training the next generation of counsellors and youth health professionals.

The Challenge

The Problem We're Solving

Fragmented health services that address symptoms, not systems

Rising mental health challenges with limited access to affordable care

Poor reproductive health education and unsafe information channels

Low financial literacy, leading to stress, debt, and risky choices

Psychology graduates who are theoretically trained but practically unprepared

Young Kenyan people

"We don't treat problems.

We build people."

— IHAK's founding principle

Why Your Organisation Needs This

The Good Therapists Academy

6-Week Intensive Bootcamp for Counsellors & Psychologists — from theory to practice-ready.

The Problem

From Theory to Practice

Most psychology and counselling graduates leave university with strong theoretical knowledge but limited practical experience. The Good Therapists Academy bridges this gap with immersive, hands-on training that prepares you for real-world practice.

Our 6-week intensive bootcamp combines supervised practice, real client simulations, field exposure, and specialized training in youth-centered counselling approaches.

"Graduates leave practice-ready,
not just certified."
