The Anchored Space – About Us - Psychology Private Practice

关于我们

The Anchored Space was set up in 2021 in a humble and cozy space. Although we are fairly new as a private practice, our team boasts over a decade of collective experience in this field.

We are intentional about our compact size to maintain the integrity of a personalised approach in offering our services to you. We are here to make mental health inclusive, accessible, and integrated with our modern experiences.

What's in Our Name?

The Space With You

这是属于您和咨询师的安全空间。通过无条件的扶持与聆听，您会深受一股安全感。这让您放心地探索自己的情绪与思维。只有看清楚自己才能踏出自己的情绪困扰。

与自己的空间

With therapy, we hope you begin to realise that there is this space within you. This is a space where you can enter any time and anywhere. This can be done by paying gentle and mindful attention on your breath where it leads you to an inner sense of peace.

咨询师

We understand the importance of finding the right therapist for you. That’s why we invite you to a complimentary pre-trial session. This is an opportunity for you to explore and see if our services align with your needs. There’s absolutely no pressure to commit to further sessions if you don’t feel it’s the a match. We look forward to creating a supportive and nurturing space for your well-being journey.

Hello, I'm Ms. Huang

My name is Zhang Jin. It’s hard to pronounce? Call me Ms Huang or ZJ (“zee jay”)! I have been working as a psychologist for more than 18 years and I love how Psychology has helped and is still helping me with my own emotional trauma. It is because of Psychology that I get to build a fulfilling relationship with myself, with the people I love, and experience a meaningful career. I am excited to help you uncover your psychological profile the way I have been uncovering for myself.

黄女士在建立自己的私人诊所之前曾在各种环境（监狱、医院、社区）担任心理学家。

With Singapore Prison Service, she worked with inmates on various issues (e.g., domestic violence, sexual violence) and personality disorders. She also provided suicide intervention training for prison officers.

在医院岗位，黄女士与患有各种心理健康问题（如抑郁症、焦虑症、强迫症）的患者一起工作。她也是第一位在医院为姑息患者及亲人提供心理辅导及临终关怀的心理学家。

Passionate about serving the community, Ms Huang was the first senior clinical psychologist in Singapore to work directly with vulnerable adults when the Vulnerable Adults Act was passed in 2018. Her work involved helping those who have experienced trauma as a result of neglect and abuse.

Ms Huang is one of the first and few certified Emotion Focused Therapists (EFT) in Singapore. She is also proficient in the following therapeutic approaches:

◆ Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

◆ Eye Movement and Desensitisation Reprocessing (EMDR)

◆ Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT)

◆ Mindfulness

◆ Person-Centre Therapy (PCT)

◆ Schema Therapy (ST)

◆ Somatic Experiencing (SE)

Ms Huang teaches Psychology at Singapore University of Social Sciences with the hope that there will be more well-trained psychologists for Singapore.

Hello, I'm Benedict.

I’m a strong believer that people have infinite potential to transform themselves and their lives. I strive to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for people to better understand themselves and tap on their strengths, resources and potential to be the best version of themselves and achieve their desired goals. Throughout my life, I’ve benefited from many people who have given me opportunities without which I won’t be where I am today, and I’m excited to pay it forward and help others do the same.
