Peter Muhwati, MS, LCSW, EFT, NICC – Advanced Practice NICC Therapist with a Master’s in Social Work and EFT certification. Peter integrates faith, neuroscience, and relationship expertise to guide healing.
All MCO counselors are approved to work in all 50 states.
I enjoy working with both couples and individuals. As a couple’s therapist, I cherish supporting two lovers to find each other and leave behind the pain, hurt, and betrayal which sometimes happen in our intimate relationships.
When an individual comes to me, my heart is for them to flourish. Sometimes we get stuck and that’s normal. Yet, we were made to live and to live life abundantly. My hope is to see my clients move to a place where they can thrive in freedom, peace, and openness with themselves, other people, and all creation.
I use Emotionally-Focussed Therapy (EFT) for couples. When clients come to me they are usually experiencing the same or similar recurring patterns of conflict, aloneness, feeling rejected, and are yearning for the emotional safety and security to be their best self both in the relationship and away from it.
I am a black, male therapist trained in emotionally-focussed therapy for couples (EFT). I am also doing ongoing training in Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP) to better facilitate healing for individuals.

“Working with Peter was one of the best decisions I’ve made. His presence was calm, thoughtful, and incredibly insightful. He had a way of asking the right questions at the right time—helping me recognize patterns, name internal narratives, and slow down long enough to actually feel and process what was going on beneath the surface.”

MyCounselor has as its aim to be the gold standard in faith-based mental health. Our counselors are required to have undergraduate studies in theology, practical ministry, or psychology and have completed a graduate (master’s) degree in mental health (professional counseling, clinical social work, marriage & family therapy, etc.).
After submitting an application package that includes transcripts, references, and video responses to a structured interview, qualified candidates are invited into a multi-stage interview process. During the process candidates will meet with clinical supervisors, perform a mock therapy session, and participate in a training with the MyCounselor clinical team. If advanced from the final interview with the Director of Clinical Services, candidates are offered a position on the clinical team and matriculated into the MyCounselor residency.
During residency counselors complete multiple rotations of clinical training and experience with specific populations, including individuals, couples, families, and teens. Specifically, residents are trained in the MyCounselor proprietary model of care: Neuroscience Informed Christian Counseling® (NICC) as applied in practice with various presenting issues.
The thorough training our counselors receive in a broad array of specialized rotations equips them to address counseling concerns ranging from the common to the complex.
