Deciding to see a psychologist is often the hard part. Picking which one, in a city with dozens of counselling centres that all promise a safe, judgment-free space, is the part nobody prepares you for. Singapore Counselling Centre, the top-ranked practice on this page, has 1,095 client reviews on file, more than any other psychologist or counselling practice in Singapore covered here.

Short answer: Singapore Counselling Centre leads by a wide margin with a 4.9-star average across 1,095 reviews, the largest review base of any mental health practice we found in Singapore. The Psychology Clinic follows at 4.9 from 93 reviews, and The Private Practice rounds out the top three at 4.7 from 83 reviews. All five offer individual therapy, though a couple specialize further in couples, children or specific conditions like OCD.

Singapore Counselling Centre

4.91,095 Google reviews

Singapore Counselling Centre, on Cuppage Road, is a counselling practice offering family and marriage counselling alongside broader mental health talks and corporate wellness sessions, including public talks led by Dr John.

What people praise

  • Reviewers repeatedly describe Dr John's mental health talks as engaging, relatable and memorable well after the session ends
  • One corporate attendee says a post-lunch talk kept the room fully awake and energized, unusual praise for a workplace session
  • A corporate facilitator credits one session with validating training techniques used in his own programs

Worth knowing

  • One reviewer describes a scheduled marriage counsellor failing to show up for a paid, pre-booked session; confirm your appointment closer to the date, especially for a specialist booking

Our take: Tops the list on sheer scale, 1,095 reviews, far more than any other practice here, with a 4.9 average that holds up despite that volume. The one no-show review is worth being aware of, though it's an outlier against the broader feedback.

Our take: A near-identical 4.9 average to the top spot, but on a much smaller review base, 93 versus 1,095. Ranks second on volume alone, not on quality of feedback.

  • One client specifically credits her with useful mental frameworks after just a few sessions

Our take: A strong 4.7 average from 83 reviews. The clinical feedback is consistently positive; the one recurring friction point is administrative, not therapeutic.

Depression & OCD specialist Clinic/ Psychologist/ Psychotherapy/ Counselling/ Singapore

4.867 Google reviews

This Shenton Way practice, operating as Therapy Mind, is a psychology clinic focused on depression, OCD and anxiety, offering counselling, psychotherapy and hypnotherapy with practitioner Samantha.

  • Another describes measurable improvement in anxiety and emotional stability after several sessions, having felt lost at the first visit
  • A client processing grief says hypnotherapy here helped her work through it session by session

Our take: A strong 4.8 average from 67 reviews, though the smallest and oldest review base of the five, which is why it ranks fourth. The positive reviews describe real, specific progress; just note the feedback skews less recent than its competitors.

How we score each practice

Rating is the practice’s live Google average. Review volume measures how many clients have actually left a rating, benchmarked against every psychology and counselling practice we found operating in Singapore. Confidence blends the two, so a high average built on a small sample scores lower than a strong average built on over a thousand reviews. Recency checks how recently people are still leaving feedback, and completeness checks whether a working website, phone number and posted hours are all on record. No practice can pay to change any of these numbers.

How much does therapy cost in Singapore (2026)?

None of the practices on this list publish session fees online, and cost typically depends on whether you’re seeing a psychologist or a counsellor, whether it’s an individual or couples session, and how many sessions your treatment plan involves. Ask for the per-session rate and whether packages are required upfront before you commit to ongoing therapy.

Psychologists and counsellors across Singapore

Two of the five practices here, Singapore Counselling Centre and Psych Connect, sit on Cuppage Road near Orchard, with The Psychology Clinic and The Private Practice both in the Thomson area, and Therapy Mind at Shenton Way in the CBD. Wherever you’re based in central Singapore, one of these five is within easy reach.

What to ask before you book a psychologist or counsellor

  • Are you a registered psychologist, or a counsellor, and how does that affect the type of support you can offer?
  • Do you have experience with my specific concern, whether that’s anxiety, OCD, couples work or a child’s development?
  • What does a single session cost, and are packages required upfront?
  • How will you confirm my appointment, especially for a specialist or first-time booking?
  • What’s your cancellation and rescheduling policy?
  • How many sessions do you typically recommend before reassessing progress?

Frequently asked questions

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which gets a badge and top placement, but that never changes another practice’s score or position.

How did you choose these five practices?

We compared psychology and counselling practices with a real Google presence in Singapore, then ranked by a mix of rating, review volume and how recently clients have been leaving feedback.

How often is this list updated?

We refreshed the data behind this page in July 2026 and revisit it periodically as ratings and review counts shift.

What’s the difference between a psychologist and a counsellor in Singapore?

Psychologists typically hold specific postgraduate training and may conduct formal assessments, while counsellors focus on talk-based support; several practices on this list, including Singapore Counselling Centre and Psych Connect, offer both under one roof.

Should I be worried about the one no-show review for the top-ranked practice?

It’s a genuine reported experience and worth knowing about, which is why we’ve included it, but it’s one data point against 1,095 reviews that are overwhelmingly positive. Confirming your appointment ahead of time is reasonable advice regardless of which practice you choose.

The bottom line

Singapore Counselling Centre is the safe default on sheer scale and a rating that holds up across more than a thousand reviews. If you need a specific focus, like child psychology or OCD-centered therapy, Psych Connect and Therapy Mind are the more targeted picks. Whichever you choose, confirm your first appointment a day or two ahead.
