Teen Counseling & Therapy in Singapore

Teen age is a challenging period for both teens themselves and parents due to the changing developmental needs of children as they transit into teen age. Teens juggle with the important task of finding out ‘who they are’ and ‘who they want to be’ as well as learn many skills that are needed for adulthood. It is also a time that they test and challenge many structures that they previously follow as it was set out for them due to their increased cognitive ability. While the symptomatic behaviours may look like those seen in childhood, other challenges may emerge.

Therapy can help:

• To provide a safe space for teens to express themselves freely
• To understand help teens to understand themselves better
• To help teens to express and respond to their needs and others more appropriately
• To build more positive self-image and self-esteem and a sense of confidence
• To improve interpersonal social skills
• To help parents understand what are the needs teens are communicating with their behaviours and to support them
• To provide parents support to improve parent-child relationship and to feel more equipped to respond to their teen’s difficult behaviours

“I have been taking counselling sessions with Gladys for about 2-3 months now. While I think there are still a lot of issues and concerns, I have been noticing a lot of improvements with how I deal with day to day matters.

Gladys has been very patient and empathetic. She has provided incredible support and help through such a difficult time in my life. The session were very beneficial and Gladys made me feel comfortable discussing anything that has been bothering me. She helped me see things in a different perspective.

I am thankful to Safe Expanse for all the help so far and I look forward to being able to continue journeying with Safe Expanse.”

“Safe Expanse goes beyond standard therapy by incorporating emotional wellness coaching in their sessions. I was intrigued to have discovered behaviours, traits and patterns that were previously obscured to me through the sessions.My coach, Shan Yao, is well versed in retrospective inquiry, highly inquisitive and empathetic from multiple viewpoints. Above all, he truly listens. It’s a positive indicator when each session is concluded with better balanced perspectives and a hopeful outlook. Thank you coach!”
