Achievements And Milestones

I was on the faculty of James Cook University Singapore, teaching and supervising at the Master of Psychology (Clinical) program. Today, I am deeply honoured to fulfil the role of the Clinical Director of Counselling and Psychotherapy at the School of Positive Psychology in Singapore. I have a strong interest in both attachment-related and single-event trauma. I am also interested in the development and facilitation of group programs. I facilitated multiple inpatient and outpatient groups at the Melbourne Clinic and Victoria Clinic in Melbourne. Additionally, I organized, developed, and facilitated retreats in Bali and Thailand based on the principles of mindfulness and mindful self-compassion. In Singapore, I organized and facilitated regular mindfulness courses and provided mental health trainings.
