My partner and I got married in August 2019. Ahead of this, we went to see Adeline for some pre-marital counselling sessions. I know this may sound odd, given that most couples go for counselling sessions only when they’re having relationship problems, however we wanted to better understand each other, our relationship, and its dynamics, before taking the next step.
The sessions were extremely useful. Adeline set out clear goals for each session and a recap at the end to allow time for reflection. She also created an environment where we could each speak freely and then discuss as a couple. We really liked the way she interacted with us during the sessions (i.e. asked questions and made observations) and, ultimately, she helped us to uncover, navigate through, and resolve a number of issues.
A year on from getting married, we’re both very happy and feel that our communication as a couple has really improved. We continue to see her for ‘catch-up’ sessions. We really appreciate her help and support.” (Joey and Sam)
We really appreciated our session with Adeline and already, we got so much out of it! We both felt safe and heard and Adeline really bring the focus to important points. I personally like that Adeline are direct, engaging and steering the conversation to those topics that are hard to talk about. And that’s the key for making a relationship work. (Tiffany and John)
I had been Adeline’s client for a few years due to my depression.
As a medical professional, I have a strong personality and am assertive in many aspects of life. After I have formed an opinion about something or someone, it is not easy to change it. During our counselling sessions, Adeline always listened attentively and non-judgmentally and provided effective counselling and therapy in a professional, experienced and caring manner. Her counselling helped me survive the tough times of my life. For example, when I was confused by my life situations, she patiently analyzed the situation for me, using facts as evidence and pointing out my blind spots. She then gave pragmatic advice and lead me step by step to correct my distorted thoughts and faulty behavior. I was most impressed during the few times that I needed urgent counselling and she tried her best to see me despite extremely short notice.
Now that I have recovered and my life is back on track, I would like to thank Adeline for her professional counselling and emotional support during that period. (Sandra)
Adeline has been my counselor for around 1.5 years. She is a very professional counselor who is willing to listen to me and discuss my issues in a non-judgmental way. I felt safe talking to her and sharing my concerns with her. She could always analyze my problems in an organized way and summarize what we shared in the session. She assisted me in staying focus and lead me to the right track when I got caught up with different life issues. Instead of teaching me what I should do, she guided me through the whole thinking process and offered me vivid examples to make me underestand clearer what I was encountering.
I was undergoing a very upset period when I first met Adeline. I am so grateful Adeline helped me through that period. I know myself better and appreciate my own worth now. She helped me find ‘Me’, who was once lost in my mind. I become a better version of me thanks to her patience and professional help.(Silivia)

Especially I would like to highlight and appreciated her extra follow-up and check in during our non-counselling section . I feel confident and positive now with the support from Adeline , I would highly recommend seeing Adeline for many forms of counselling . (Ruby)
