Approach <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n

Our team mainly takes an integrative approach to counselling because we believe that everyone is unique. We recognise that our backgrounds, including our socio-cultural and religious influences, shape our perspectives. Instead of trying to fit everyone into one counselling model, we strive to use the approach that will help you heal and grow best. Effective counselling, in our view, involves the counsellor providing a safe and supportive space for you to navigate your life’s journey and make sense of your experiences.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

Individual Counselling<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n

In individual therapy, we explore ways to manage the challenges that disturb and affect our emotional wellbeing.  <\/span><\/p>\n

\u200b<\/span><\/p>\n

Issues that require therapy may include anxiety, depression, interpersonal challenges and anger management etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Family Counselling<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n

When something unpleasant and overwhelming hits us unexpectedly, our survival instinct kicks in. This may create friction and communication issues.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

In therapy, the counsellor facilitates conversations. In a safe place, members of the family are able to address difficult topics and foster understanding. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Couples Counselling<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n

Building a strong marriage takes effort. In therapy, we help couples identify and improve unhealthy patterns, fostering better teamwork. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We also offer pre-marital counseling with Prepare-Enrich resources. Couples can choose a package or go session by session.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Chiew Peng Chua (aka CP)<\/strong><\/h6>\n
Principal Counsellor<\/span><\/h6>\n

Growing up in a kampung (village) culture nurtured my love for people and a deep respect for people’s stories. I was a Pastor for over 20 years before switching to full time counselling work.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Those who know me say I am an old soul with a young heart. I paint, cook and read a little when I’m free but will always make time for K-dramas and doing nothing!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

    Patricia Lian<\/strong><\/h6>\n
    Associate Counsellor<\/span><\/h6>\n

    I love people and their narratives, having been brought up with grandmother stories and books. In my work in education and faith-based ministries, I have found that people often regain insight to their own healing journeys if given a listening ear and a reflective presence. Explore, find words, make meaning and move into new spaces. Breakthroughs and growth come from the soil of our own stories.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Associate Counsellor<\/span><\/h6>\n

      Stories draw me in – I grew up in a world where conversations mattered, and people were treasured\u2014so it\u2019s no surprise I found my way into education, communication, and later, counselling. After over 30 years of working with children, teens, young adults, and professionals, I still get excited helping someone take that next brave step. I also volunteer with at-risk children, and it keeps my heart grounded. <\/span><\/p>\n

      <\/span><\/p>\n

      People say I\u2019m warm and easy to talk to. I say, let\u2019s sit down, breathe, and just be\u2014preferably with a cup of coffee and a good story.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

        Passion and compassion have been and are the two uncompromisable values I hold on to. I love what I do and I do what I love. People are ultimately what really matters. These convictions have steered me from a 30 year career in the corporate world as a CFO into mental health counselling, volunteering at the orphanage and mentoring young adults. <\/span><\/p>\n

        <\/p>\n

        I also love books, travel and fun. Life is too precious to miss these simple pleasures that keep our souls smiling.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

          \u201cCP is an incredible counsellor. I started counselling with her 2.5 years ago to get over a bad break-up.
