About Us

Abrihot Specialized Psychological Center is the first registered psychological center by FEMDACA in the history of Ethiopia. This center provides different mental health and psychological services to a wide range of clients with many years of experience in the field. Our center was established in 2016 by clinical & counseling psychology professionals. Our center is found in the middle of Addis Ababa in a convenient location around Wollo Sefer.

Abrhot (Abrihot) is originally a Ge’ez, Amharic and Tigrigna word that, among others, signifies ‘looking at the future with optimism.’ The foundations of the organization were established by a group of young Ethiopian psychologists who were eager to see change in psychological practices in the country, especially in the quality of services delivered.
