Think Psychological Services Singapore has an experienced team of qualified clinical psychologists and registered psychologists that provide both psychotherapy and counselling services.

 

Psychotherapy and counselling is sometimes used interchangeably, but they are different and it is essential that your psychotherapist is appropriately trained for therapy to be effective and safe.

 

Psychotherapy is generally a longer term therapy aimed at gaining insight into chronic emotional and/or physical issues. The therapy plan focuses on an individual’s thought processes and overall well-being rather than a specific problem.

 

Counselling is normally a shorter term series of therapy with focus on a specific problem or symptom which the individual needs guidance on how to resolve or manage.

 

We take great care ensuring all new patients are matched with the most appropriate Think psychologist or counsellor. We consider this matching process essential to providing patients the best quality care as it allows us to allocate the most appropriate clinical psychologist, registered psychologist or therapist to you.

SINGAPORE PSYCHOLOGISTS - OTHER INFORMATION

Singapore Psychologist: Psychotherapy & Counselling

Mental health concerns can affect anyone at any age, and seeking professional help can be an important step towards improving your well-being. In Singapore, there are different types of mental health professionals available, including psychologists, psychotherapists, and clinical psychologists.

 

Psychologists in Singapore are trained mental health professionals who provide assessment, diagnosis, and therapy services for individuals who are experiencing mental health issues. They may specialize in working with a specific population, such as children, adolescents, or adults, and can provide support for a wide range of mental health concerns.

 

Psychotherapists in Singapore are trained professionals who provide therapy services to help individuals work through emotional, behavioral, and interpersonal issues. They may use different types of therapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, or mindfulness-based therapy, to help individuals achieve their goals.

 

Clinical psychologists in Singapore are mental health professionals who have received specialized training and education in the diagnosis and treatment of mental health issues. They are qualified to provide a range of therapies, including individual, group, and family therapy, and can work with individuals who have complex or severe mental health concerns.

 

If you’re considering seeing a psychologist, psychotherapist, or clinical psychologist in Singapore, it’s important to choose a professional who is qualified, experienced, and compassionate. You can ask for referrals from your doctor or other healthcare professionals, or search online for professionals who specialize in working with the issues you are experiencing.

 

It’s also important to prioritize your own preferences and needs when choosing a mental health professional. Consider factors such as location, availability, and therapy approach when making your decision.

 

In conclusion, if you are experiencing mental health concerns, seeking help from a qualified mental health professional in Singapore can be an important step towards improving your well-being. Whether you choose to see a psychologist, psychotherapist, or clinical psychologist, there are professionals available who can provide the support and guidance you need to overcome your challenges and thrive.

What is the difference between a psychologist and counsellor

In Singapore, psychologists and counselors are both mental health professionals who provide therapeutic services to individuals who are experiencing emotional, behavioral, or mental health issues. However, there are some differences between the two professions.

 

Psychologists are trained mental health professionals who have completed a degree in psychology, followed by additional education and training in the diagnosis and treatment of mental health issues. They are qualified to provide a wide range of therapies, including individual, group, and family therapy, and can work with individuals who have complex or severe mental health concerns. Psychologists may also conduct psychological assessments and diagnose mental health conditions.

 

Counselors, on the other hand, are trained professionals who may have a degree in psychology or a related field, but may also come from other backgrounds, such as social work or counseling. They provide supportive counseling services to individuals who are experiencing emotional or interpersonal issues, such as relationship problems, stress, or grief. Counselors typically focus on helping individuals cope with their issues and develop strategies for managing their emotions and behaviors, rather than diagnosing or treating mental health conditions.

 

Overall, both psychologists and counselors in Singapore are trained mental health professionals who can provide effective support and guidance to individuals who are struggling with mental health concerns. However, the level of education and training may differ between the two professions, and psychologists may be better suited for individuals who have complex or severe mental health conditions, while counselors may be better suited for individuals who are experiencing less severe emotional or interpersonal issues.

Who registers psychologists in Singapore

In Singapore, the registration and regulation of psychologists is overseen by the Singapore Psychological Society (SPS) and the Singapore Register of Psychologists (SRP).

 

The SPS is a professional organization that represents psychologists in Singapore and promotes the development of the psychology profession in the country. It sets standards for ethical and professional conduct, provides continuing education and professional development opportunities, and advocates for the recognition and advancement of the psychology profession.

 

The SRP is a voluntary register that is maintained by the SPS. It provides a list of qualified psychologists who meet certain standards of education, training, and professional practice. Psychologists who wish to be included in the SRP must meet specific requirements, including holding a recognized qualification in psychology and having completed a certain number of hours of supervised practice.

 

In addition to the SPS and SRP, the Singapore Health Practitioners Regulatory Authority (HPRA) is responsible for regulating mental health professionals in Singapore, including psychologists. The HPRA sets standards for professional practice and education, investigates complaints of professional misconduct, and has the power to discipline and sanction registered professionals who do not meet these standards.

How to find the best psychologist for you in Singapore

Finding the best psychologist in Singapore for you can be a daunting task, but there are some steps you can take to help you make an informed decision:

 

  1. Get referrals: Ask your doctor, friends, or family members if they can recommend a psychologist. If you have a specific mental health concern, such as anxiety or depression, ask if they know of a psychologist who specializes in treating that issue.
  2. Research online: Look up psychologists in Singapore online and read their bios and reviews on their website, social media platforms, or online directories. Consider the psychologist’s credentials, experience, and specialization.
  3. Check their credentials: Ensure that the psychologist you choose is licensed and registered with the Singapore Psychological Society (SPS) or the Singapore Register of Psychologists (SRP). You can also check their qualifications, training, and experience on their website or by contacting the SPS or SRP.
  4. Consider their approach: There are different therapeutic approaches to mental health treatment, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and mindfulness-based therapy. Consider the approach that best aligns with your needs and preferences.
  5. Schedule a consultation: Many psychologists in Singapore offer a free or low-cost consultation. Use this opportunity to get a sense of their approach, ask questions about their experience, and see if you feel comfortable with them.
  6. Check their availability and location: Consider the psychologist’s location and availability, as well as the cost of their services. You may also want to consider if they offer teletherapy services if you prefer to have sessions from the comfort of your own home.

 

Remember that finding the right psychologist is a personal decision that depends on your unique needs and preferences. Don’t be afraid to take your time and explore different options until you find a psychologist that feels like a good fit for you.
