"I did not change, I just woke up" (Anonymous). At some point in your life, you can be stuck in a rut and hungry to move forward and find something (be it a personal issue, work, relationship, sexual connection) that is more fulfilling and meaningful. You have read all the self-help books, journaled, and attended retreats yet still feel something amiss. The "old ways" of living and being that used to be helpful have no longer served their function and lost their spark.

You can't seem to quiet the thoughts in your head. You keep replaying different scenarios. You analyze what you could have done differently. Some days you barely recognize yourself . The guilt is eating you up inside. Your thoughts keep you isolated and feeling lonely. You feel unsatisfied in your relationships. How can you possibly give anything to someone else when you are feeling this way? There's so much you need to get done but you feel stuck and unmotivated. You lay awake at night overthinking. You wake up feeling hopeless, unsure how you will get through another day.

You're a devoted mother who consistently aims for high standards, leading to frequent stress and anxiety as you pursue perfection and strive for control. This pursuit sometimes leads to increased stress and feelings of inadequacy when things don't go as planned. To cope, you've developed backup plans, yet this ironically intensifies your guilt and occasionally strains marital harmony. Your primary goal is to find a healthier balance among your maternal ambitions, your role as a partner, and your emotional well-being. You aspire to be wholly present for your child and contribute to a harmonious family life.

Outwardly, you live a seemingly perfect life—beautiful family, loving partner, successful career. But deep down inside, you’re falling apart, weighed down by the pressures of making decisions for yourself, afraid to make the wrong decisions. You yearn to confide in someone, yet there are some things you can’t share with family. Although surrounded by friends, you question if they truly care or even understand your struggles. And so, to protect yourself, you keep everyone out, building walls to shield your demons and despair—only to feel more lost and isolated, leaving you to question your identity and existence in this world.

FAQs - About Therapy and Counselling

How can I find a therapist in Singapore?

Search for nearby therapists or counsellors by inputting your city, town, or suburb; or postcode; or a provider’s name into the search bar. From there, you can filter providers by the issues they treat, cost, insurance, gender, and other factors to find providers who are well-suited to your needs. To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or postcode into the search bar.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online or over the phone can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your postcode.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counsellor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counsellors are all licensed mental health professionals. In many countries, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counsellor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counsellors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

What type of therapist is right for me?

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counsellor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?

The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counselling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What type of therapy is right for me?

The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?

Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
