Upcoming Events

We will host a Movie Night featuring the documentary 'Power of Chi.' This enlightening film brings together TaiChi master Adam Mizner with world-class athletes, including the World’s Strongest Man and professional UFC fighters, in order to practically demonstrate the use of ‘Chi skill.’ The film, with a running time of approx 75 mins, offers a fascinating insight into how the energy of Chi can be harnessed for physical strength and well-being. The Power of Chi Trailer.

 

Counseling Perspective as a practice recognises the value of a holistic approach approach to wellness and is pleased to offer this a chance to meet and talk with Paul Mc, a direct student of Sifu Adam Mizner, who teaches Taiji and Qigong in the Heaven Man Earth school created by Sifu Mizner.

 

In the pursuit of more Chi, there are many approaches you may take, and having more information about the options available helps you make informed decisions about your health. The time commitment required for a sincere study of taiji may not be convenient for everyone, which is why an understanding of the Foundations of Qigong is so valuable for those seeking to create the causes for health.

 

Qigong is a practice that can improve mobility, strength, and stability, help heal the nervous system and stimulate the Chi, leading to an increase in vitality and a decrease in physical discomfort. These movements are straightforward and can be easily incorporated into your daily routine, leading to long-term benefits for your health and well-being.

Mental Health Issues


We take an integrated approach to help our clients manage and heal from many different mental health issues. Our experienced professional counsellors are trained in a variety of proven and complementary techniques for treating mental illness. Some of the more common mental health conditions we treat are listed below. If you have or think you may have one of these conditions, please don't hesitate to get in touch for a confidential discussion.

Mood Disorders


Someone with a mood disorder regularly experiences feelings of sadness, hopelessness, lethargy, guilt, shame, and/or the urge to self harm. In cases of bipolar disorders, they also experience extreme mood swings, alternating between depressive "lows" and manic "highs".


The most commonly diagnosed mood disorders are:


Anxiety Disorders


Anxiety disorders are characterised by persistent feelings of fear, worry, tension, and unease that interfere with normal life and social functioning.


Common anxiety disorders include:


Eating Disorders


Eating disorders are serious illnesses with dire psychological, social, and physical health consequences. Symptoms may include engaging in severe caloric restriction, binging, and/or purging. Body image distortion is another frequent symptom.


Among the most well-known eating disorders are:


  • Anorexia nervosa
  • Bulimia nervosa
  • Binge Eating Disorder

Compulsion


An compulsion is a health condition in which someone is dependent on a substance or behaviour. Substance compulsion and behavioural compulsion can often centre around:


Anger Issues


Although anger is a normal, healthy emotion, it is not always easy or straightforward to manage. Common anger issues include becoming angry very easily, overreacting, and feeling out of control when angry. Some people may also find it difficult to express their anger, feel the need to hide it, or experience anger as the result of unresolved hurt.

Stress


Everyone experiences moments of stress, but stress that goes on for weeks or months isn't normal. Chronic stress puts you at heightened risk for health problems such as high blood pressure and heart disease. Symptoms include fatigue, headaches, difficulty concentrating, digestion problems, muscle aches, and loss of sexual drive and/or function.

What to Expect at Counselling Sessions?


A first session can be daunting, especially if you are new to counselling in Singapore. Your therapist will endeavour to make you feel comfortable and at ease. They will ask questions to understand your symptoms and what has brought you to counselling, and identify how best to help you. You are welcome to ask any questions you have during this session and any follow up session.


Our counsellors are experienced with multiple therapies and techniques. Different clients will benefit from different psychological services. Your therapist will develop a course of treatment for you based on the tools most suited to your needs. Some of the types of therapy we provide are listed below.

  • Psychotherapy

  • Existential Psychotherapy

  • Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT)

  • Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT)


  • Schema Therapy

  • Positive Psychology

  • Hypnotherapy / Hypnosis
