FAQ
Questions you may have
If you do not find your answer here, please ask. I am happy to talk it through.
What is inner child work?
Many of our patterns began in childhood as ways of coping. Inner child work reconnects you with those younger parts of yourself, so they can finally receive the care, safety and understanding they needed at the time.
What is IoPT?
IoPT stands for Identity-Oriented Psychotrauma Theory, developed by Prof. Franz Ruppert. It understands trauma as something that divides our sense of self, and it helps you recognise those parts and rebuild a clearer, healthier identity from within.
What does "intervening at the source" mean?
Instead of addressing symptoms one at a time, we work with the original wound beneath them. When that is attended to, the effects often ripple outward into your functioning, your relationships and your sense of self.
What happens in the first session?
I will explain the stance I hold as a therapist or coach, so you know how we will work together, and you can ask any questions. Then we map your family genogram, which helps us see how you became the way you are and where the work is best begun.
What is a family genogram, and why do you use it?
A genogram is a map of your family and its key relationships. It lets me gather a great deal of psychosocial, emotional and mental information efficiently, and understand your functioning template, much of which is shaped by your first relationships with your parents or main caregivers.
Who do you work with?
Executives and C-suite leaders, individuals facing anxiety, burnout, grief or life transitions, married couples, and young adults finding their purpose and identity.
How long are sessions?
I offer 60-minute and 90-minute sessions. You are billed by the time used: if a 60-minute session runs to 75 minutes, you pay for 75 minutes, and if a 90-minute session ends at 75 minutes, you pay for 75 minutes. Fees are prorated from my hourly rate.
How do I pay?
You can pay by PayNow to my company UEN. If you prefer to pay by credit card, you can pay through PayPal, with a 5% service charge borne by the client. I will share the details when we confirm your booking.
How do I book?
Message me on WhatsApp, send an email, or book a time through my calendar on the contact page.
Do you offer sessions online or in person?
Both. I see clients in person in Singapore and online through Zoom. The in-person location is shared when you book.
Do you work with clients outside Singapore?
Yes. I am open to working with clients overseas through Zoom.
What languages do you offer sessions in?
My sessions are predominantly in English. If you would like to work in Mandarin, please get in touch and we can talk about it.
