RU COUNSELLOR
MR ONG CHIAN SHEN
Licensed & Registered Counsellor (KB09626, PA09253)
Master of Professional Counselling
Bachelor Degree of Psychology (Honours)
As a licensed and registered counsellor, Mr Ong has 3 years experiences working in various counselling settings, including universities, schools, NGOs, and clinics. These diverse environments have provided me with opportunities to assist individuals facing a wide range of challenges.
Mr Ong’s specialised area of interest lies in helping individuals navigate life’s struggles, which may encompass academic, career, relationship, grief, emotional, self-exploration, inner child processes, and other mental health-related issues.
He believe that every individual possesses the ability to heal themselves with the support they need. However, the complexities of the world can often leave us lost in thought, burdened by heavy emotions, and haunted by traumatic experiences.
During these challenging times, his role is to create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can uncover your true self, subconscious with inner strengths, and consider the various options available to help you lead a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
