Neena Khattar

Neena’s Masters’ research in Applied Positive Psychology explored the relationship between choice around motherhood and wellbeing, deepening her interest in supporting women navigating questions of motherhood, identity, expectations and choice. Her experience as a board committee member of the Autism Association of Singapore has also deepened her understanding of the experiences and needs of caregivers supporting individuals on the autism spectrum.

Neena is passionate about working with individuals who seek deep self-awareness, a greater sense of resilience, purpose and fulfilment, meaningful self-improvement to live a fuller and more enriched life, and support through life transitions. She brings curiosity, warmth and a genuine respect for each client’s individual experience, meeting people where they are rather than imposing a predetermined path for change.

She takes an integrative, collaborative approach to counselling, drawing on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) and Narrative Therapy according to each client’s needs. She believes therapy is not about providing ready-made answers, but about creating a safe, non-judgemental space for clients to better understand themselves, explore patterns that may be keeping them stuck, and develop greater choice in how they respond to life’s challenges.
