Therapy / Counselling
How are you feeling today? Not how you are or how your life has been, but how you feel. Do you feel a heavy weight crushing on you, causing you to grasp for air? Do you feel fear lingering in the dark as you experience the loss of control in life? Do you feel sad and empty as if life has no meaning? A part of you knows that you need help and support, but another part of you is hesitant to seek therapy. Your wellness and growth are important. You need not have to walk this journey on your own.
Life has its waves and curves that often throw us in unexpected directions. A sudden loss of a loved one or relationship, failures that threaten our sense of worth, personal losses of health or finance, or experiencing injustice or abuses at home or work. In such storms of life, we encounter grief, anger and pain that often leave us lonely, stressful and helpless.
Or, you may be tirelessly navigating life transitions in the various chapters of life as a student, working adult, caregiver or retiree. It may be an uphill journey juggling the various roles and demands at work, in your family or in your community. It is no surprise that these accumulated stressors are weighing on your mental health and emotional wellness, and perhaps even your physical health.
We are emotional and relational beings. We seek connection, meaning, growth and fulfilment. We feel, we love and we long to belong. The reality is we are not shielded from emotional stress, hurts and pain. The good news is we can heal and grow, we can build resilience and thrive. Many tried to “be strong and move on” and soon discovered that the path of healing is a different one. Like a wound that would fester if left unattended, we cannot “suppress” or ignore the wound. The path of emotional resilience and growth takes courage, congruence and compassion. It is never too late to seek therapy, whether it is to attend to the emotional weights and wounds of the present or of the past.
I invite you to take this path of healing and growth. And if it fits you too, I would like to journey with you as your therapist.
“I felt lost and troubled before I sought counselling. Professional counselling has enabled me to regain my emotional health and make progress much faster than struggling on my own. During the sessions with Grace, I felt better as I was able to verbalise my thoughts and feelings freely. The sessions have given me clarity and insights into myself too. As I worked on the issues discussed, I was able to get my bearings back again.
I highly recommend Grace as a counsellor because she is an active listener and she asks me good and important questions to help me see my strengths and also where I need to work on. She diagnosed my issues well and helped me understand from another perspective. I am thankful to have received counselling from Grace as she has provided guidance and helped me find my anchor back in my life.”

“Counselling provided me with a safe environment where I could share and work out complex emotional problems with an experienced professional. I was introduced to Grace through a mutual contact after going through a rough patch at work. The counselling sessions helped me make sense of the complex emotions that I experienced. The sessions also provided me with useful advice on how to manage my emotions in a healthy way without causing additional stress or anxiety to my family, friends and colleagues.
I also attended a few sessions where Grace coached me on my strengths. I found the sessions useful in helping me understand what my strengths are and how I can apply them to live a more fulfilling life. The additional reflections after each session helped to reinforce the learning points in each session too.
The challenges we face in life are multifaceted and complex. Having a professional to lend a listening ear and to provide advice on the problems we face is something that all of us can benefit from.
I would recommend Grace as a counsellor to my friends. She is patient and has a good listening ear. She has a pleasant personality and has a way of ensuring that you are in a safe and secure environment to open up about your problems. The questions she asked helped prod me towards the answers that I sought. I am thankful for her advice and support during the period where I experienced challenges at my workplace.”
