Hi! I’m Amanda, a Singapore-based Integrative Mind-Body Therapist.
I help clients around the world navigate stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and other forms of emotional overwhelm, along with the ripple effects these struggles have on their relationships, work, and physical wellbeing.
But this wasn’t always my path. I spent eight years building a career in corporate and startup environments across Southeast Asia — outwardly successful, but inwardly restless, anxious, and questioning what it all really meant.
After a series of personal ups and downs (and the powerful support of therapy), I finally allowed myself to listen to what I needed most: a more honest, grounded way of living and working. Growing up between Indonesia, the US, and Singapore shaped that search too — teaching me what it means to navigate change, identity, and belonging, and how old patterns of coping can follow us across places, relationships, and seasons of life.
Today, I bring that lived experience, alongside my professional training, into my work with clients who are ready to reconnect with themselves, create new patterns, and build lives that feel stronger, freer, and more their own.
Going through my own healing made me intentional about the methods I chose to study and practice, blending evidence-based approaches with work that honors the full human experience. These are the core disciplines that inform how I work today:
Psychology & Neuroscience of Mental Health: Applying evidence-based theories and research to understand and support mental wellbeing.
Somatics & Trauma-Informed Psychotherapy: Integrating body-based and talk therapies to heal the emotional and physical imprints of trauma.
Positive Psychology & Wellbeing: Drawing on the science of human flourishing to build strengths, resilience, and return to safe and purposeful living.
Performance-Oriented Coaching: Combining psychological principles with action strategies to drive personal and professional growth.
