Hello! Welcome to ReSTART!

My name is Lauren, and I am a professional counsellor; as well as an accredited parenting coach. People who have been with me a long time know that I have joined this profession with a simple goal - To help my child become a Happier and more Confident person. As I go deeper into what I do, I realised that this is what I really what to do - To Help. To Make a Little Difference.

 

I believe that, while life's journey may not be smooth-sailing all the way, we can choose to walk it with greater happiness and confidence. As you may already know, our perspectives can impact the way we feel or act; positively or negatively. If we find ourselves stuck in a situation, sometimes with a little help and right guidance, we can turn things around quickly. Many of my clients have told me that they are so surprised to see how, by simply reframing our mental models, it can change the way we feel and act positively.

 

A working mom myself, I also understand the challenges parents and children face, as they develop towards independence. Big hugs to all parents out there! Not an easy journey!

 

Thus, I decided to get myself professionally trained in this area so that I can effectively coach parents using proven strategies in parenting. Accredited with the International Triple P, I deliver Positive Parenting Programs to parents in Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, UK, US, and the SEA countries. 

 

Parenting can be a JOY, if we know "What To Do", "When To Do", and "How to Do".

​

In terms of experience, I have the privilege of working extensively with children, youths, adults of diverse and multi-cultural backgrounds, on areas such as:

​

• Marriage, Parenting & Family Challenges

• Anger, Stress & Anxiety Management

• Depression

• Learning & Behavioral Issues

• Life Coaching for better clarity and direction in life

​​

Other than seeing clients, I also collaborate with the National Institute of Education, Singapore to run the Personal Growth and Development Program with the Teachers-trainees. Off working hours, I volunteer at Grace Haven, The Salvation Army; and The Ministry of Social and Family Development. I work with children placed in foster care, and At-Risk youths to ensure their psychological and physical well-being.

​

Here at ReSTART, the Person-Centred and Strengths-Based approaches are adopted when working with clients. It is all about a Happier You. If you are looking for support, I am here to listen. Whether it’s about your personal challenges, career, relationships or family, I will walk the journey with you. Together, we work towards Re-Balancing your emotions; gain clarity and fresh perspectives to Re-Focus your thoughts and direction. And with this new readiness and strength, Re-Start your journey again!"​
