Therapists in Downtown Core, Singapore

I have been practicing counselling since 2007, specializing in couple or marriage counselling. My focus areas include addressing issues such as infidelity, extramarital affairs, communication difficulties, highly conflicted couple relationships, and challenges within parenting and family relationships. My approach to counseling is rooted in a deep commitment to facilitating healing and growth within relationships. I work collaboratively with my clients to create a safe and empathetic space where they can explore their emotions, share their concerns, and gain insights into their relational patterns

At Incontact, our experienced counsellors offer confidential counselling services for individuals and corporate communities in Singapore. We provide thoughtful guidance that promotes well-being and development, improved functioning, and strengthened methods for coping with life.

Having the courage to open up and taking the first step to talk about personal issues does not come easy. Excessive negative thoughts can cloud your mind, affect your mood and action. In long term may revolve in a cycle of dysregulation. Counselling is about having purposeful conversation and discussion, and trusting the person you are confiding in. It may be just one session of self-awareness/decompartmentalising intervention is all you need, or a number of these sessions to help manage and improve your symptoms to reach your goals. In my sessions, I will support you through a psychotherapeutic approach in accordance to your needs.

You might be feeling depressed. Maybe you have been anxious and overwhelmed for some time now. Or perhaps there a significant event that is making you feel out of balance emotionally. You are looking for answers and want to improve your situation and grow from your experiences. Have you wondered why self-help books and motivational talks seem to have little effect on your situation? It's mainly because they don't provide personalized feedback or have fully understood your situation. Every person has their own unique strengths, circumstances and areas of improvement.

I support individuals dealing with burnout, depression, anxiety, stress, grief, impulse control and emotional regulation, addiction, maternal concerns, relationship challenges, parenting issues, and healing from childhood trauma.

Hi there! I am glad that we are already meeting for the first time. You may be reading this while looking for the "right" therapist for yourself, your child, parent or your relationship. You may thinking that the troubles that you/ your loved one face are "strange" and "alien". These are understandable thoughts. However, you are never alone as the type of issues you/loved ones face are more commonly faced by others than we think. Regardless of their issues, all clients hope to be understood, to live meaningful lives, either by reducing or learning to live alongside their problems/symptoms.

Over the past 20 years, I have worked successfully with clients suffering from anxiety, depression, eating disorder, and addictions.

Life often presents us with a series of intricate puzzles to solve. Whether you're navigating the complexities of relationships, grappling with work-related stress, feeling lost in life's transitions, or confronting the aftermath of trauma, you don't have to face these challenges alone.

At times, life is hard, and we sometimes find ourselves in problem situations that we struggle to cope with. Our family and friends, who normally provide us with most of our emotional support, are not always able to help. Indeed, though well-meaning, their advice can actually be counter-productive and increase our personal difficulties. This is where Counselling Therapy can be especially useful. We provide support to clients suffering from a range of issues that most of us face at some time, including stress & anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship troubles, academic/work issues, trauma & poor personal boundaries.

As a psychologist, I believe in providing a safe, nurturing and supportive space to allow individuals to share their vulnerabilities and for healing to occur.
