Professional Approach and Qualifications

I adopt the role of a professional psychological counsellor for my clients in individual, couple, family and group settings. I have also facilitated mental health talks and workshops to different profiles of clients and communities.

 

Conducted in a safe, confidential and supportive environment, I facilitate my clients to uncover the true causes of the real or perceived sufferings, along with the triggers.

 

In addition, I lead and guide in crisis management, case conceptualisation and management, intervention and treatment formulation, care coordination, and psychosocial support to numerous marginalised community members in need. Since 2013, I have served in counselling centres, recovery centres, clinic and therapy centres, prisons, hospitals, halfway houses, special schools, and educational institutions.

 

I have served in a key position at a major Singapore-based autism-focused charitable organisation for more than 12 years. During that time, I worked with clients and their families across the lifespan. Previously, I held senior management positions in the private sector for more than 15 years.

 

I am currently pursuing a PhD in Counselling Psychology. I am also an appointed Adjunct Faculty (Lecturer) and Trainer for counselling and psychology subjects in private educational institutions for adult learners.

What my clients say

She/Her, 40s

Krish’s patience and gentle guidance have helped me learn how to deal with my issues, and it has improved my relationship with my family members. I am also better at setting boundaries.
For anyone considering counseling or therapy, I would highly recommend Krish. He is very empathetic and genuinely cares for my well-being. I actually felt comfortable enough to share certain aspects of my life that no one else knew about.
