Focus on the Family Singapore ✓ ACRA Verified

Focus on the Family Singapore displays a '$$' price indicator, but specific per-session fees are not publicly listed in the available data. Singapore counselling sessions typically run from S$80–200 per session at non-profit and private practices, with some organisations offering sliding-scale or subsidised rates based on household income. It is worth asking directly whether a first-consultation fee applies, what the ongoing session rate is, and whether package pricing is available for clients committing to multiple sessions. Confirm also the cancellation and no-show policy, as many counselling practices charge a fee for late cancellations. See the full counselling cost guide for Singapore →

Most counselling services in Singapore do not require a formal GP referral for general counselling, though a referral can be helpful if you intend to claim under an insurance policy or if your concern involves a diagnosed mental health condition requiring coordination with a psychiatrist or family doctor. Focus on the Family Singapore accepts initial enquiries by phone or online form, so you can describe your situation before committing to an appointment. The first session typically functions as an intake and assessment — the counsellor will ask about your background, current concerns, and goals for counselling. It is advisable to flag any specific conditions, medications, or prior treatment history at this stage so the counsellor can confirm they are the right fit or refer you onward if needed.

Counsellors in Singapore may be registered with the Singapore Association for Counselling (SAC) or hold a licence from the Singapore Psychological Society (SPS) if they are practising psychologists. Allied health professionals such as psychologists working in clinical roles may also be registered with the Allied Health Professions Council (AHPC). No specific licence information was provided in the listing data for Focus on the Family Singapore, so prospective clients should ask directly for the qualifications and professional registration details of the counsellor they will be seeing. You can verify SAC membership on the SAC public directory and AHPC registration on the AHPC licensee search. Confirm the practitioner's licence number on the relevant board's public register before treatment.
