6 Online Therapy & Counselling Platforms In Singapore

Help is a click away with these online platforms

by Michelle Lee  /   June 22, 2021

Digital healthcare is on the rise, and it’s also expanded to mental health. Whether you’re facing anxiety, grief, burnout, or family and financial problems, it’s only natural to want to seek a listening ear.

And your support network doesn’t just extend to your family members and friends, who may not be professionally trained to be able to help with your mental health concerns. And this is where therapy or counselling sessions come into play.

If you’re strapped for time or think you can open up better from the safety and comfort of your home, digital counselling or therapy could help. Plus, they can often be more affordable than face-to-face sessions.

6 Online Therapy & Counselling Platforms In Singapore
Safe Space
image

This Singapore start-up and virtual therapy platform, which launched in 2019, hosts a team of clinical therapists whom you can match and book online sessions with through its website or mobile app. It aims to offer fast, discreet and affordable access to mental health therapy.

It was started by Singaporean co-founder Antoinette Patterson, who discovered a gap in mental healthcare after having difficulty in her online search for emergency mental health services for a colleague who was experiencing panic attacks.

All of Safe Space’s counsellors are licensed practitioners under the Singapore Association for Counselling, or Australian Counselling Association, and you can find out more about their specialisations through the website. And apart from teleconsultations, you can also opt for in-person sessions.

SACAC Counselling
custom

SACAC Counselling is one of the oldest mental health care practices in Singapore, having been around since 1973, and has a pool of highly experienced and qualified experts to provide counselling and psychotherapy support to individuals (from preschool children to adults), couples, and families.

You don’t have to be concerned about language barriers, too. Its team is multi-cultural, and can speak various languages and dialects including English, Malay, Bahasa, Hindi, Cantonese, Hokkien and Mandarin, as well as French, Italian, Arabic, and more.

Online sessions are conducted mostly through Skype and Google Meet (though this can be changed to accomodate your preference) and while the service is suitable for most clients of varying ages, it recommends in-person sessions for very young children and those with specific psychiatric issues.
