About Nadya Tan

Nadya Tan is a counselling professional with a Bachelor’s in Psychological Science with Honours from James Cook University and a Master’s in Counselling from Monash University. She is also a provisional clinical member of the Singapore Association for Counselling.

Nadya's approach to Individual therapy

Nadya is passionate about providing a safe and accepting space for clients to share their thoughts and feelings. She uses a variety of techniques, including, but not limited to, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Cognitive and Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and Mindfulness.
Nadya believes that everyone can benefit from counselling. During her time as an undergraduate, she sought counselling and found it to be precious to gaining insight into her thoughts and emotions. This motivated her to pursue counselling as she hopes to provide and support others in managing and overcoming their mental and emotional struggles.

Coming from an early childhood background, Nadya has prior experience working as a research assistant in socio-emotional developmental studies and understands that many factors can influence an individual’s emotional health beginning from a young age. Through her work with young children, Nadya has seen first-hand how negative experiences in childhood such as trauma, neglect, or exposure to violence can have a lasting effect on emotional well-being and development. She has a deep understanding of how factors such as parenting style, family dynamics, and socioeconomic status can also be an influence on our emotional health. Nadya believes that one can grow and thrive emotionally by discovering and empathising with these subliminal factors.

Nadya's approach to Couples therapy

For couples therapy, Nadya uses the Gottman Method. She specialises in couples counselling to help couples through problems and transitioning relationship stages. Moving into a new home together, getting engaged and married or navigating problems can be stressful—Nadya believes that couples can benefit from therapy to deepen and improve their love lives. She has completed Level 1 and Level 2 Training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy. Nadya also teaches many strategies from Gottman's therapy such as Gentle start-up.

Nadya can give therapy in English and can additionally provide a safe, non-judgmental, and LGBTQ+-friendly space. To understand more about how Nadya approaches couple therapy, she has added some frequently asked questions.
