TESTIMONIAL D** was presented with life setback concerns on personality-related difficulties, low self-esteem and difficulties relating to adjustment anxieties. These affected his personal attributes, daily interest activities and unable to focus on his studies. He has a history of significant bullying during his secondary school years, in particular experiencing physical bullying in Secondary 3, including being kicked and sustaining bruising. These experiences were relevant to understanding some of his emotional and interpersonal difficulties subsequently addressed with the help of psychotherapy. For D**, his studies wasn’t a smooth journey but a step improvement at a time helps a lot for him. With patience, perseverance and seeking professional help, finally he will be completing Polytechnic studies very soon. After NS, his applications for full time studies were all unsuccessful. Though he felt dejected for some time again, opportunity came when a Republic Polytechnic part-time work-study program accepted his application and started in Oct 2022 for 30 months. When the program ended in mid 2025, out of the 17 modules taken he failed one and couldn’t graduate. He was giving up again. We talked, encouraged him and brought up SAMANTHA’s The Therapy Mind sessions he underwent on confidence building. D** finally agreed, picked up courage and retook the particular module this year in Apr-Aug 2026. The result was out last week, and he finally PASSED with joy. Currently, he is waiting for his diploma award to be informed from RP. Samantha, we are thankful to you and your mental support! We decided that it is highly recommended to seek professional specialist help. D** is able to achieve thus far mainly accredited to the consultation and treatments by DR SAMANTHA TAY, a Professional Psychologist of The Therapy Mind, whom we entrust during the period from September 2021 to March 2022. Under Samantha, he underwent psychological assessment and psychological interventions of integrated therapeutic approach targeting his needs, with a total of 12 psychotherapy and counselling sessions following his psychological assessment. The first six sessions primarily addressed emotional regulation, anger management, stress, repetitive overthinking, and internal thought processes in the context of his presenting psychological difficulties and reported history of bullying. The subsequent six sessions focused more specifically on adjustment-related anxiety, low self-esteem, confidence building, career counselling, and personal growth and development. Treatment was structured to help strengthen his psychological coping resources, improve emotional and cognitive regulation, develop a healthier sense of self, and enhance his ability to manage personal, social, and vocational challenges. The therapeutic objective adopted was to assist in developing greater awareness of his emotional responses, improving his ability to regulate difficult emotions, establishing healthier cognitive, behavioural coping patterns, confidence building and career counseling, and, personal growth and development work, where the treatment included are: • Anger management and emotional regulation • Identification and management of negative internal thought patterns • Strategies to reduce excessive or repetitive overthinking • Stress-management techniques • Development of greater self-awareness and emotional control • Strengthening healthier coping strategies and responses to stressful situations • Self-esteem enhancement • Confidence building • Management of adjustment-related anxiety • Identification and restructuring of unhelpful thought patterns • Career counselling and exploration • Personal growth and development • Development of personal strengths and capabilities • Improvement of coping and problem-solving skills • Support in developing clearer personal and career goals D** has improved ever since and is gradually able to better control of his self-esteem and confidence into his future.

I genuinely believe Dr Priya changed the trajectory of my life during one of the darkest and most destabilising periods I’ve ever experienced. I started seeing her while navigating betrayal, grief, anxiety, nervous system dysregulation, deep emotional burnout and the process of rebuilding myself after my entire life unexpectedly fell apart. What stood out to me from the very beginning was that she never coddled me, never fed me comforting nonsense, and never made me feel like I needed to stay “broken” to keep coming back to therapy. She challenged me when I needed to be challenged, called me out when I was abandoning myself, and helped me rebuild my self-worth, emotional regulation and sense of identity from the ground up. At the same time, she held so much compassion and care. I never once felt judged, rushed or dismissed. She has this rare ability to make you feel deeply seen while also helping you take accountability for your healing and your life. What I also deeply appreciated was how holistic her approach was. Our sessions were not just traditional talk therapy. Depending on what I needed, she would thoughtfully integrate things like EMDR, breathwork, grounding techniques, nervous system regulation, meditation and deeper reflective work into the process. It never felt one-dimensional or transactional, it felt like she genuinely cared about helping me heal in a sustainable and embodied way. She helped me understand my nervous system, relationship patterns, attachment wounds, people-pleasing tendencies and emotional triggers in such a grounded and empowering way. Not in a fluffy “positive vibes only” way, but in a real, practical, deeply transformative way. There were many moments where she saw things clearly before I did, and gently guided me back to myself over and over again until I could finally stand on my own emotionally again. If you are looking for a therapist who is intelligent, honest, emotionally grounded, deeply intuitive and genuinely invested in helping you become stronger, healthier and more self-aware, I cannot recommend Dr Priya enough.

I first met Yiz after a failed relationship with another therapist, and I'm more than grateful to him for my healing journey. I came into the session with a lot of guilt and shame, helpless about my situation but Yiz was patient at holding space for me, which made me feel safe to open up to him. He taught me many valuable skills by guiding me to discover them independently which grew my confidence and build trust in myself again. My current situation is one that my past self would have never imagined possible, like an unlocked secret ending. Thank you once again for being a part of my healing journey! :)
