Lilian Lee-Cutts

Counselor & Psychotherapist

Lili is originally from the UK and is exceptionally warm, approachable and committed in her working style with clients. She understands that talking about our deepest fears and challenges can be overwhelming, so she places a huge emphasis on creating a safe, comfortable space for her clients, bringing a healthy sprinkling of humor and straight talking to the proceedings.

Lili works in an integrative way, which means using both traditional talking therapies such as Humanistic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as well as somatic therapies such as attachment focused-EMDR to heal clients in a truly comprehensive way. This approach enables her to view clients as a ‘whole person’, recognizing the interconnectedness of body, nervous system, emotions, and thoughts. This roots and branches approach leads clients to achieve real-life change that is lasting.

Attachment theory is a cornerstone of Lili’s work as understanding this is paramount to healing. In sessions, she will build out an understanding of the client's childhood attachment style to better formulate interventions to tackle relationship stress, emotional distress and dysregulation. She is culturally and trauma informed and has helped a hugely diverse range of clients in Singapore to feel better, discovering coping strategies to manage current challenges and to develop stronger relationships with self and other people.

She supports adults, teens and couples experiencing depression, anxiety, life, academic and work stress, interpersonal issues, shame, low self-esteem, phobia, trauma, loss, adjustment to change, major life transitions.

Lili offers counseling in English, both in person at Raffles Place, Oasis and Joo Chiat and also online.
